[aur-general] Add pyopencl to [community]
by Stéphane Gaudreault 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Dear Tus, I would like to add pyopencl [1] to [community]. I maintain this package in AUR and it has 14 votes. Pyopencl depends, among other, on libcl (OpenCL library, provided by either nvidia-utils or amdstream [2]) and a package that provides OpenCL C/C++ headers. Here is my plan : * Add pyopencl to [community] (I will use a better name, something like python2-pyopencl) * Tidy up and add opencl-headers [3] (66 votes) to [community] [4]. * Leave amdstream in AUR The opencl-headers package provides headers from the Khronos group. It could also be possible to use a different source to get *exactly* the same headers (Nvidia for example). Any comment or objections in adding these packages to the [community] repository? Stéphane [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31416 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21933 [3] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35367 [4] I contacted hsyl20 (maintainer of opencl-headers). He has no objection if I take his package.

Hi, I've just spent a couple of minutes looking at the orphan packages on AUR and some of them should be deleted as their previous maintainers said they are useless but forgot to send the deletion request on the ML: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35080 qtcreator-cpphelper-plugin-git https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39744 aften-svn https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28626 blender-simphys https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19607 texi2html-cvs This one is strange: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33092 gold-cvs Heftig, why do you want to keep this package for reference? Any news about the "Deletion request" button in the AUR website? By the time it is implemented, it would be cool to add a warning when people press the orphan button that they may want to send a mail to this ML for deletion. Martin

It appears that my package of fossil-scm https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30182 is the same as https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44774 mine has been around longer and only difference I see in the the later package from lavandero is that he/she added "make -j1 bld bld/headers"

[aur-general] poppler 0.16 rebuild
by Ionuț Bîru 01 Feb '11

Hi, the rebuilding is almost over and was already moved from staging to testing in the morning, the only package that doesn't build is openscenegraph and is not related to poppler api breakage. Sergej can you look at it and try to fix it? -- Ionuț
