[aur-general] How would I implement this?
by Aaron France 31 Aug '13

31 Aug '13

Hi, I've wrote a couple of basic PKGBUILD files which simply pull from github and compile but this time I need something a bit more. Basically I need to pull in some dependencies from other repositories (easy) and then invoke a command via one of the Common Lisp implementations which may be available on the system. I'm not sure how to set up the dependencies for that. Any ideas? Aaron

Package may work, but without a docu it seems to be risky. ------ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/aeskulap/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/aeskulap-dcmtkcompat/ The aeskulap package seems to conflict dcmtk and dreieck made a new package to avoid this. As this package is more maintained than the other, they should propably be merged.

Though the later was more up-to-date in the past. I suppose the first wasn't updated and someone uploaded the second. In case of naming, there should only exist one of those and more packages are uploaded as coin-*. I wrote a comment and suggested a change. ------ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/coin-clp/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/coin-or-clp/ Same story like the above Best regards Lex

Please merge python-shiboken into shiboken. The shiboken package is older and shiboken is an application, not a library, so it as the proper naming scheme. Both packages provide the same software, and there are no particular differences in build flags. -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera

Hi Lukas, I think I must have missed doing this earlier, but unfortunately I find that I have to resign my position as a TU. It's been a lot of fun and I've really enjoyed working alongside so many great people and learning through it, but I have a lot of new things going on in my life these days that doesn't leave me time for the responsibility. Could you please forward this email to the AUR list as well? I unsubscribed some time ago.

Also keep in mind that skipping too many votes automatically triggers a special TU removal... Thank you for your cooperation. Cheers, Lukas ----- End forwarded message -----

[aur-general] Proofreading request
by Clément Junca 28 Aug '13

28 Aug '13

Hello, Could someone have a look at the attached package, please ? It's my first AUR package written from scratch. I've packaged the script Feather written in Python2 by Dan Rue to handle backups with tarsnap (https://github.com/danrue/feather) It contains some difficulties for a beginner: sources from github, a patch to correct Python executable name and a custom licence. I would be glad to have a seasoned packager looking at it. Running namcap gives two warnings: feather-git W: Dependency included and not needed ('tarsnap') feather-git W: Dependency included and not needed ('python2-yaml') since namcap probably can't notice their usage as a system call and as a Python library. Best regards, -- Clément
