[aur-general] Email Notifications of new AUR orphaning/deletion/merging method
by David Phillips 11 Feb '15

11 Feb '15

Given that we're still getting requests on this list for removal/merging/orphaning of packages, could we not simply send an email out to all those who have AUR accounts explaining the fact that we've changed the way things are done since then? I recognise that this might be viewed as spammy or annoying by those who are already fully aware of this fact, but passive notification on the AUR front page hasn't proved to be fully effective. Perhaps if there are a lot of AUR accounts who never maintain or own any packages, we could simply send email messages only to those who currently have one or more packages under their wing? What do you all think? -- David Phillips GPG Key 0x7BF3D17D0884BF5B Fingerprint 2426 235A 7831 AA2F 56AF 4BC0 7BF3 D17D 0884 BF5B

[aur-general] [RFC] command in PKGBUILD to select archlinux mirror to download from
by Rafael Ferreira 06 Feb '15

06 Feb '15

Hi there I'm look for a way to set the PKGBUILD's source=() to fetch file from archlinux repository without needing to set "ftp.archlinux.org" (which is throttled in 50Kb/s) or any other specific mirror (in order to avoid slow connection in distant geographic locations). FYI, some PKGBUILDs in AUR need to fetch from archlinux repository, like lib32-pam, lib32-avahi, lib32-smbclient. So, a solution for this issue might might provide better experience for end-user from AUR unsupported. One too much lazy solution (but works) is to grep one server from mirrorlist (e.g.: first) and get specifically the prefix of the URL, which will be completed in the source array: _srcurl=`grep -m 1 ^Server /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist` _srcurl=${_srcurl/Server = /} _srcurl=${_srcurl/\/\$repo\/os\/\$arch/} source=($_srcurl/foo/bar) Any other idea? Comments are welcome.

[aur-general] AUR account cleanup 2015
by Lukas Fleischer 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

Hi, Here is a list of ~12000 inactive AUR accounts [1] that I am going to purge soon. I noticed the list includes a fair amount of spam accounts this time but just in case your user name appears on that list and you want to keep it, please re-login within the next couple of days. For more details on the process, please read last year's account cleanup thread [2]. Regards, Lukas [1] http://sprunge.us/hjbT [2] https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2014-January/027030.html
