[aur-general] Migrating name for python-{xlrd, xlwt, xlutils} before Py3 release
by Aaron DeVore 11 Nov '12

11 Nov '12

I maintain the packages for xlrd, xlwt, and xlutils in the AUR. The project behind them, python-excel, will probably release a Python 3 version within the next few months. Currently, each product has two packages with the prefix python-* and python2-*. Both point to a Python 2 version, but I will eventually move the python- packages to use Python 3. The python-* packages have a description that adds on something like "(Use python2-xlrd!)". Should I have the python-* packages deleted, then recreate them when a Python 3 version is released?

[aur-general] Deletion/Orphan request: qt2
by Jekyll Wu 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

It is really outdated, and the maintainer doesn't care about fixing the building problem (easy to fix and the solution has been provided in the comment). So please remove it or at least orphan it so someone can step in and update the PKGBUILD. One side note: I notice there are kdelibs2(fails to build) and kdebase2 on AUR. Does it still make sense to keep them when we are now at KDE4? Is there some general policy regarding to such totally outdated packages? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qt2/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdelibs2/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdebase2/ Regards Jekyll

This package fails to build because the tarball is gone and what is fetched to the disk is a HTML file. Thus file size mismatches. Another user has mentioned the problem months ago, but apparent the maintainer does not care. Please remove https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kde3-kgtk/

[aur-general] Java services in systemd
by Gabriel Ribeiro da Cruz Peixoto 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

I recently had a problem with a service file of a package in AUR [1]. I already contacted the maintener but we both don't know how to make it work across diferentes providers of java. My java-runtime is provided by jdk [2], it sets JAVA_HOME and adds /opt/java/bin to PATH in the file /etc/profile.d/jdk.sh [3]. But aparently these variables are not set when the service file calls the start script of PMS. Is this behavior expected? If so, how to find out where the java executable is without these variables?
