[aur-general] VCS PKGBUILD and Pacman 4.1: increase epoch?
by Cédric Girard 06 Apr '13

06 Apr '13

Hello, I was wondering, as I am updating my PKGBUILDs to use the new VCS features of pacman, if this specific case need an epoch increase for those packages. Packages version were generated from the date (eg 20130401) and thus will probably be bigger than new versions from the tags (eg 0.3.1.32.gfb4117d). Thus an epoch increase should be needed to have a correct behavior. But it seems most packagers are not increasing the epoch as they are switching to this new versionning scheme. Is there a recommendation on this? -- Cédric Girard

[aur-general] VCS PKGBUILD pacman 4.1: fragment "revision" on SVN don't work
by SpinFlo 06 Apr '13

06 Apr '13

according to manpage: fragment (optional) Allows specifying a revision number or branch for makepkg to checkout from the VCS. For example, to checkout a given revision, the source line would have the format source=(url#revision=123). The available fragments depends on the VCS being used: svn revision this don't work when passed: source=('vapoursynth::svn+http://vapoursynth.googlecode.com/svn/trunk#revision=434') always get latest commit in repo (in this case r445) this is a bug? the packagebuild http://sl1pkn07.no-ip.com/paste/view/242d4608 greetings

Hi, Could you please remove mu-kiss [1], please? It's the same as mu [2], only without support for the GUI tools, but with the latest version of mu this isn't needed anymore, since these now depend on webkitgtk3, and won't be built unless this is installed. Thanks. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mu-kiss/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mu/

by member graysky 05 Apr '13

I believe functionality is within repo packages now. I submitted the following a while ago but orphaned when laptop died. Others have maintained but also recently orphaned it: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-ck-bumblebee/ The following are mostly orphaned and are packages that I did not submit: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-ck-pax-bumblebee/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-ck-corex-bumblebee/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-bumblebee-pae/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-bumblebee-beta/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-bumblebee-310xx/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib32-nvidia-utils-beta-bumblebee/ Do with them what you will, but please remove my original one. -- Sent from Gmail Mobile
