[aur-general] ongoing TU inactivity for Chris Brannon
by Chris Brannon 13 Aug '12

I'm still inactive, and it looks like I will remain so until mid-September. Things should have settled down for me by then. Thanks for all the kind words from people in the community. -- Chris

[aur-general] Removal request: fenics group packages
by Myles English 12 Aug '12

12 Aug '12

Hi, I was pursuaded[1] to keep some unworthy packages in the AUR, and the thread was inconclusive (may be my final email was too long)... To summarise the contents of that thread: for a group of related packages, the stable versions are not likely to work for anyone and the VCS versions (*-bzr) are more sensible, but someone might adopt the stable ones, so we'll keep them lying around, at the risk of confusing users who install them by mistake to satisfy dependencies or the -bzr versions. What has changed since then is that now, users are indeed confused and no one has adopted the non-bzr pacakges so please would a hard working TU transfer any votes to the -bzr versions and delete as follows: Delete Migrate votes to | dolfin | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37270 | dolfin-bzr | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=58971 | | ffc | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37268 | ffc-bzr | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59137 | | fiat | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37267 | fiat-bzr | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59138 | | instant | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20880 | instant-bzr| http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59369 | | ufc | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37269 | ufc-bzr | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59139 | | ufl | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37266 | ufl-bzr | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59140 | | viper | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37328 | viper-bzr | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59007 | Thanks, Myles

[aur-general] Enthought packages
by François Boulogne 10 Aug '12

Hi, Several Enthought python tools on AUR are out-dated and have no maintainer. I was interresting in Miyavi. This package (python-enthought-mayavi) is out-dated and uncorrectly named since it depends on python2: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21647 The correct corresponding package is python2-mayavi https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=46179 I think python-enthought-traits should be deleted https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21645 Out-dated, it doesn't compile, it was a dependance of python-enthought-mayavi and uncorrectly named (python2) Correct corresponding package : python2-traits The same for python-enthought-utils https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21646 python-enthought-enable https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32326 python-enthought-chaco https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32325 Thanks, -- François Boulogne. https://www.sciunto.org

[aur-general] Removal: i386-haiku-binutils-git

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=57424 I wanted to resubmit this without the -git suffix since GIT is the only means of obtaining this package, as there are no releases of any sort. The -git suffix, in this case, would only serve to imply that there's a release variant package I'd think.

[aur-general] Looking for a sponsor
by jsteel 10 Aug '12

10 Aug '12

Hi, In October 2011 I sent an email to register my interest in becoming a TU [1] (thinking that was the next step to get involved) and I received some helpful responses of how I can be more involved with Arch, without jumping in as a TU right away. Over the last 10 months my AUR packages have continued to grow as I found time to look after more. I currently maintain 58 packages [2]. I often get in contact with upstream to help with any queries or issues and feel that I do a good job staying on top of everything. I'm not on IRC much, but I keep a very close eye on mailing lists, the forum and what's going on in the AUR. Generally I stay quiet and get on with it and only make a noise if necessary or to help someone. I am hoping for some further guidance now, and hopefully for a TU to take me under their wing to get me closer to becoming a TU, as I would love to maintain some of my packages in [community] such as gsimplecal, partclone, obkey, scratch and some games, and also some packages I do not maintain like dvdbackup and clonezilla. I am a fast learner so should not be much of a burden. Many thanks, jsteel [1] http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2011-October/016278.html [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=jsteel&do_Search=Go&detail=1&C…

[aur-general] Some packages removal request

Hello, I've listed some packages that I think should be removed from the aur: advcp: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45056 The package was orphaned, I adopted it, but the proyect is stopped since about 2 years ago. It works with coreutils 8.4 (actual is 8.17) and pv already exists in community with the same function. iceweasel-il18n-af: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=61533 It already exists with the name iceweasel-i18n-af, like all the other language packages of iceweasel. 0ad-ppa-wfg alpha_5_9530-1: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42000It's orphaned since 24 Jul 2011 and outdated since 11 Jul 2011. Also, there's an svn version up to date. Regards

[aur-general] Concerning mingw-w64-qt
by Schala Zeal 09 Aug '12

09 Aug '12

I was hoping to get mingw-w64-qt placed into multilib or community repo because today I had built the package, but it took approximately TEN HOURS to do so. This is because it builds static release, static debug, shared release, and shared debug for both 32 and 64-bit. I will admit the full suite is very handy, but it would be great to have a binary package in the repo to save people the abysmal build time. Seeing as mingw-w64's toolchain has a good number of votes and Qt's widespread use, I feel it would be a great benefit to cross platform developers, again, given the circumstances of the above issue. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60127 Thanks
