[aur-general] SELinux upgrade and packages deletion request
by Nicky726 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Hello, First a bit of notice: I upgraded SELinux related packages in AUR. If some kindly had a look at those PKGBUILDs and comment them, I'd be glad. Especially the kernel package gave me a pain (it's config). The same for users having some troubles. And now to business: Following packages of mine are not needed anymore (please delete them): selinux-usr-libselinux-python selinux-usr-libsemanage-python selinux-kernel26 Python bindings are now part of the original packages. I decided to change the name of kernel package to comply Arch Linux naming standards. Have a nice day, Ondrej Vadinsky -- Don`t it always seem to go That you don`t know what you`ve got Till it`s gone. (Joni Mitchell)

[aur-general] Out-of-date community packages
by Eric Bélanger 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Hi TU, Since the community repo has been moved to the main web site, you are no longer receiving out-of-date notifications as they are being listed as orphans. We are currently working on finishing the setup, accounts, etc. Meanwhile, here's a list of recently flagged packages (there might be core/extra packages as I didn't bothered filtering the list): [acetoneiso2] [fceux] [listen] [qemu] [aircrack-ng] [gnote] [netbeans] [rubyripper] [pinentry] [virtualbox-additions] [virtualbox-modules] [virtualbox-ose] [virtualbox-ose-additions] [virtualbox-ose-additions-modules] [awesome] [imagemagick] [xtrans] [rtorrent] [libtorrent] [kvpnc] [nilfs] [nilfs-utils] [openttd] [vnstat] [efreet-svn] [eina-svn] [ecore-svn] [embryo-svn] [edje-svn] [e_dbus-svn] [e-svn] [python-sphinx] [libotf] [monit] Eric

[aur-general] Moving jackbeat to [community]?
by Andrea Scarpino 16 Nov '09

16 Nov '09

Hi, I am updating jackbeat, which is orphan, in [extra] and the last release (0.7.2) needs portaudio from [community]. Still, jackbeat provides pulseaudio support if it is built with; pulseaudio is in [community]. This package is orphan, so I think is not a good solution if I update it and add another orphan package into [extra]. But I can update and move it to [community] or AUR (pkgstats says 4.47%). Maybe some TUs is interested. Opinions? -- Andrea `bash` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

[aur-general] Package removal request
by Ranguvar 16 Nov '09

16 Nov '09

Hello, I just recently adopted the firefox-hg-pgo package. Could you please delete it? In a few minutes I am going to upload firefox-pgo-minefield. The name fits better with the other firefox-pgo-* packages, and it is nice in that it is manually updated when a new Firefox HG revision passes the Mozilla Tinderbox unit tests :) Thanks! -- Devin Cofer (Ranguvar)

gnome-colors-extras-icons <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29052>is a duplicate of gnome-colors-icon-theme-extras<http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31415> . The latter is better named and is maintained, and the former has comments suggesting they wanted it deleted anyways :)

by Sven-Hendrik Haase 15 Nov '09

Please remove the AUR duplicate package "flight-of-the-amazon-queen" which is technically inferior to "fotaq", a more modern package with the same content. -- Sven-Hendrik

[aur-general] [pinentry-qt4] Package removal?
by Peter Lewis 14 Nov '09

14 Nov '09

Hi, I'm pretty sure that this can now be removed from the AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20913 It was the package for the Qt4 version of pinentry before that was incorporated in the standard pinentry package in [extra]. No maintainer, no-one objected in its comments section... Cheers, Pete.
