[aur-general] Orphan request: eclipse-java
by Vitaliy Berdinskikh 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Hi all! [eclipse-java][] was marked as out of date in February. Fgrano adopts it in April but doesn't update the package. Now we have new Eclipse - Indigo. I wrote to Fgrano on 30 June - no answer. [eclipse-java]: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18064 -- Regards, Vitaliy Berdinskikh

[aur-general] Deletion Request
by Nathan Hulse 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Hello there, I would like to request deletion of the compiz-*-09 packages on the AUR, as suggested by wonder. They are out-of-date and pretty much redundant as the compiz-*-++ packages fulfill the same purpose. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38958 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38959 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38960 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38961 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38962 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38963 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38964 I have made an alternate set of packages available using a more generic -dev suffix. These install the current release from the development branch as a normal installation, rather than a test install, differentiating them from the "compiz++" packages. I've added installation routines here and there to smooth out some rough edges. Regards, Nathan

[aur-general] pragha-svn
by Brett Kleinschmidt 06 Jul '11

06 Jul '11

The AUR package pragha-svn (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27537) is well out of date and has been neglected since 2009. Emailing its maintainer is futile (message bounces). I've been an Arch user for years and I've been a developer and user of Pragha for many months. I would be happy to adopt and maintain the package, if only someone would orphan it for me. Thanks, Brett

Please delete google-appengine [1]. Now we should use google-appengine-python [2], because this package has the correct dependencies for Google App Engine SDK for Python, as python25, python25-ssl, etc, and it also has the _correct_ name: google-appengine-* python*.

[aur-general] Delete rtorrent-color?
by Axilleas P 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

Is there any point in having both rtorrent-extended[1] and rtorrent-color[2]? rtorrent-extended includes patch for rtorrent-color and besides that the maintainer just disowned the package. So, I think it's safe to remove [2].

[aur-general] [RFC] Inclusion of CPANPLUS in community
by Florian Pritz 03 Jul '11

03 Jul '11

Hi, I'd like to move perl-cpanplus and perl-cpanplus-dist-arch to community so users can install software from cpan easily without bypassing pacman. I'm not sure whether this is a problem or not because cpanplus automates the installation of software from a possibly untrusted source. It uses the metadata from CPAN to generate a PKGBUILD and runs makepkg -i on that. More information about perl-cpanplus-dist-arch can be found here: https://github.com/juster/perl-cpanplus-dist-arch/blob/master/README -- Florian Pritz

[aur-general] VCS Packaging Guidelines
by Mark Foxwell 02 Jul '11

02 Jul '11

Hi, What is the _official_ opinion on when to bump pkgver on VCS packages? I maintain offlineimap-git [1] (and a few other VCS packages) in AUR and generally bump the pkgver on each commit and may add to the comments about major changes. Other maintainers seem to take the approach to not bump the pkgver unless any changes to the build process are needed. I think that any _official_ view (even if it's 'either way is fine') should be added to the VCS PKGBUILD Guidelines wiki page [2]. Many Thanks, Mark [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24202 [2] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_CVS_%26_SVN_PKGBUILD_guidelines

[aur-general] deletion request: e17-full-svn

Hello, Could you remove e17-full-svn? It has become absolutely impossible to maintain. It needs to be linked to several libraries that are included in the package itself, so a hundred of silly hacks are necessary. I have lost an entire day on it to finally think that it wasn't worth so much effort (and maintainability would be horrible too). All the best

[aur-general] Package Guidelines: Naming of Apache mods
by Phillip Smith 30 Jun '11

30 Jun '11

Hi all, My Google-fu has turned up nothing on this this. Is there a preferred standard for naming packages of Apache mods? I see everything in [extra] is just "mod_name" but some AUR packages are "apache-mod_name" Personally I prefer the "apache-mod_name" form, but I take the format of [extra] to be the official word? It doesn't seem to have been discussed before (as best I can find in my searching) so thought I would raise it. I have packages in AUR using both formats and I want to bring them in line with "the right way", whichever that is ;) Cheers, ~p

[aur-general] pyopengl packages
by Michael Schubert 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Dear TUs, Currently, there are 3 pyopengl packages in community and AUR: [1] python-opengl (python2): http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-opengl/ [2] python-pyopengl (python3): http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7798 [3] python3-pyopengl (python3): http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45322 I just adopted and updated python-pyopengl without realizing that there is a python3 version already in AUR. As the package itself is called "OpenGL", I think that the correct name in community would be python2-opengl and the one in AUR python-opengl (according to the naming standards). Either way, there are now 2 packages for python(3)-opengl in AUR, please delete whatever you think is the better choice. Thank you. Michael

[aur-general] Provide update in AUR to extra package as a dependency of my package?
by Leif Warner 29 Jun '11

29 Jun '11

Hi, I'm the maintainer of the 4store package: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33807 It's been blocked from being upgraded for a while now by a lack up upgrades to the rasqal package in extra. Would it be permissible to provided an updated rasqal version on AUR for people who want to run a recent version of 4store? Another of its dependencies, raptor, which is maintained in step with rasqal, was updated from raptor1 to raptor2 a while ago, and both are installed concurrently, but there's no similar update for rasqal. -Leif Warner
