[aur-general] Broken libdbf in the AUR
by Quentin de Metz 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

Hi, I ran into issues building libdbf<https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libdbf/> on my machine - and apparently I'm not the only one. It seems like the package is broken. It wasn't enough to simply add my architecture to the PKGBUILD, I also followed cassava's instructions to fix the name conflict in endian.{h,c} Since it looks like the original project is long dead on Berlios (and still using CVS), I moved the code over to Github<https://github.com/quentindemetz/libdbf> where it will have increased visibility. I'd like to update the PKGBUILD to use this new source ( https://github.com/quentindemetz/libdbf/archive/0.0.2.tar.gz or https://github.com/quentindemetz/libdbf/archive/0.0.2.zip) I've contacted the package's maintainer. but have yet to receive a response. What's next? Thanks, Quentin

[aur-general] Orphan request: perl-cpan-meta-check
by Moritz Bunkus 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

Hey, please orphan perl-cpan-meta-check[1] as I would like to take over maintainership. Some of my own packages require the new version of the Perl package provided by $subject; therefore the lack of an update is holding me back. I've flagged it as being out-of-date on 2013-09-13. I've added a comment about this on 2013-09-19, and I've emailed the maintainer on 2013-09-26. I have yet to receive a single sign of life from him. Several of his other packages[2] are flagged as out-of-date as well, but I'm only interested in maintaining the one in $subject at this moment. Thanks for considering. Kind regards, mosu [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-cpan-meta-check/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?K=dseg&SeB=m
