[aur-general] Removal request: oss-hg
by Nowaker 21 Sep '13

21 Sep '13

Hi, I'd like oss-hg package removed from AUR. OSS does not use Mercurial for development now, so the name is out of date. Besides, the package didn't contain systemd units. Today I uploaded oss-git which is almost a 1:1 copy of oss from [community]. -- Kind regards, Damian Nowak StratusHost www.AtlasHost.eu

[aur-general] Merge mmat-git into minecraft-map-auto-trim-git
by Buce 21 Sep '13

21 Sep '13

Please merge https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mmat-git/ into https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/minecraft-map-auto-trim-git/ as I believe the latter more accurately reflects the upstream project's name. TYIA, -Buce

Hi, Would anyone care to comment on this PKGBUILD? AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/fr/freecad-git/PKGBUILD Pastebin copy: http://pastebin.com/q3ARNgJ6 Is this an acceptable clever workaround or an abomination that should be purged with fire? Regards, Xyne p.s. OR statements and other boolean operatores really would be nice sometimes

[aur-general] pandoc moved back to the AUR for the time being
by Daniel Micay 19 Sep '13

19 Sep '13

I've moved pandoc back to the AUR because the latest version picked up too many new dependencies. It was convenient to have it in [community], but it's much saner to maintain these with the automation used by the arch-haskell project. I only use it for Rust's documentation generator, and don't want to be frequently rebuilding 30+ libraries for a language I don't use. Our packaging standards don't make much sense for Haskell because there are little gains from dynamic linking. There's not nearly enough sharing of code for it to come close to being efficient, and no stable ABI either.

[aur-general] Multi-merge request: acx{100, 111}-firmware -> acx-firmware
by Normal Ra 19 Sep '13

Please merge: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/acx100-firmware/ and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/acx111-firmware/ into https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/acx-firmware/ Firmware files for acx-mac80211 driver are quite a difficult bunch; some versions work with cards, some don't, some versions specify USB-only firmware files. I think it's best not to saturate AUR with lots of stand-alone firmware PKGBUILDs. Cheers!

[aur-general] systemd 207 and btrfs
by Jameson 19 Sep '13

19 Sep '13

I upgraded to systemd 207 today, and upon reboot received several messages that say, "failed to open /dev/btrfs-control skipping device registration: No such file or directory." The btrfs problem faq suggests that running "mknod /dev/btrfs-control c 10 234" should fix me up. However, when I run this it says that it already exists. The only significant changes that I made were to upgrade systemd, and add the systemd hook to mkinicpio.conf. I tried booting from external media, and removing the systemd hook, but after re-running mkinitcpio I still get the same result. Does anyone have any suggestions for getting past this? I will happily provide more information if you can tell me what would be helpful. Thanks, =-Jameson

[aur-general] uppity replaces curlpaste in [community]
by Jonathan Steel 18 Sep '13

18 Sep '13

Hi, curlpaste [1] has been replaced [2] by uppity [3]. The usage is very much the same. I propose moving uppity-git to [community] as uppity, and removing curlpaste (not uploading it to the AUR). Am I right in thinking that uppity "replaces", but does not "conflict" with curlpaste as there are no file conflicts? I believe I need three other TUs to agree that uppity can go into [community] as it only has two votes. If this does not happen in the next two weeks, I will continue to remove curlpaste from [community], but leave uppity-git in the AUR. Thanks, [1] https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/any/curlpaste/ [2] https://github.com/Kiwi/curlpaste/tree/master "Please use Uppity from this point on, it is far better than curlpaste ever was."
