So the initial burst made a smallish dent, but there's still a lot more to do, which I'd like to get to this weekend. If anyone want to help out, that'd be great.
I would like to help out but I'll be away for the week-end. I could remove/move some packages on Monday if there's still some cleanup to do.
Here's a handful of instructions for moving things, just to be complete.
== Move to unsupported == cd repo/category/pkgname tar czf pkgname.tar.gz * /upload to the AUR/ cvs tag -d CURRENT cvs tag -d CURRENT-64 (possibly testing as well if it's there) cvs rm -f * cvs commit
PKGBUILD and their accompaning files should be submitted to unsupported in a tarred directory named after the package. So the above should be: == Move to unsupported == cd repo/category tar czf pkgname.tar.gz pkgname/PKGBUILD pkgname/any_other_files_to_be_included /upload to the AUR/ cd pkgname cvs tag -d CURRENT cvs tag -d CURRENT-64 (possibly testing as well if it's there) cvs rm -f * cvs commit The second line could be simplified to: tar czf pkgname.tar.gz pkgname/* but that would include the CVS directory. It's probably better not to have that in the AUR submission tarball. Eric -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
