[aur-general] Please orphan python-vpython
by Andrzej Giniewicz 08 May '11

08 May '11

Hi, the package python-vpython (which moved from extra) is terribly outdated. Currently at 5.32 and broken, while 5.71 is out for quite some time. The package wasn't updated since 13'th Nov 2010 (exactly at time when it moved from extra, it was never updated even a bit), and it is sole package of this maintainer. Multiple people tried to contact the maintainer, including me (trough comments and email) and we had no luck. New, working versions of packages are posted in comments, but not uploaded. In this case I'd like to take over the package, at least to bring it up to date, and most likely maintain it afterwards. Thanks, Andrzej.

[aur-general] Updated PKGBUILD for redeclipse-svn
by Arand Nash 07 May '11

07 May '11

Hello, I've written an updated version of the PKGBUILD for redeclipse-svn. I've tested it only briefly on a headless system, more poking is welcome. First time writing for AUR, input welcome. Diff quoted, plain file attached. I've sent it to the maintainer as well, but I thought it might fare well from more sets of eyes. - arand PKGBUILD | 107 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- 1 file changed, 65 insertions(+), 42 deletions(-) --- a/PKGBUILD +++ b/PKGBUILD @@ -1,60 +1,83 @@ # Contributor: J.W.

[aur-general] Aurphan in community
by keenerd 06 May '11

06 May '11

I would like to move Aurphan into community. I've added a number of features to it lately, and it has become an automated means of answering "what can I do to help Arch", parsing and summarizing the todo list, the bugtracker and the orphans. The one random dev I've asked seems cool with it, however he thought a wider consensus should be found. It has enough votes but.... Aurphan could be considered an AUR helper. By default it searches the AUR for AUR packages you already have installed. It does not download anything. I will change it so the default behavior does not search the AUR. (New default would display the --help) I won't change the name, on account of it being cute. aur page: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43726 project page: http://kmkeen.com/aurphan/ -Kyle http://kmkeen.com

[aur-general] Package Removal Request: some Faenza packages

Hi, the AUR has a few useless Faenza packages. For example: * f-dark-icon-theme -- a part of the actual Faenza * faenza-cupertino-icons -- wrong name, out of date, not all variants (also, I'm not sure, but faenza-kde-icon-theme does not seem to be needed, someone else would have to check it) Can you please delete *the first two* packages? -- Cheers, -- Kwpolska (http://kwpolska.co.cc) O< ascii ribbon campaign - stop html mail - www.asciiribbon.org

[aur-general] Package Removal Request: glc
by Austin Beatty 05 May '11

05 May '11

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16947 Since GLC moved from its old site to github, there aren't any (or I can't find any) tarballs of glc, so now the only way to download it is via git, but since I already maintain the glc-git package, that makes this package reduntant and unneeded.

[aur-general] cant remember password
by Iñigo Álvarez 03 May '11

03 May '11

Hi I come here, because i forgot my aur username, and dont know how to deal wit it: A year ago, i formatted my laptop with Arch, to try Gentoo.. and some weeks ago, I just reinstalled Arch again... But i just cant remember which username i had, so i can't use aurvote, and most importantly, i can't upload any pakagebuilds to aur. I searched for ancient emails, but didn't appear on them my username, i also tried all my usual usernames, but they never worked, i assume i went original wit this one. I tried the "reset password" option, but on the reset mails never appear the username. Oviously, triing to do a new account doesen't work because "there is an account associated with this email". I will appreciate if someone can tell me my username, or delete my old account, so i can do a new one. I don't want to create a new email account just for aur... Thanks in advance for any help

[aur-general] New file "/etc/rc?"
by Yaro Kasear 03 May '11

03 May '11

I'm a tad confused about the purpose of /etc/rc. It says its used for the control of daemons and starting and stopping them. Does this mean its replacing the daemons array or something? And with the starting and stopping of daemons... is this for automation or something. The news page doesn't really offer that much explanation about this new file.

I will be unavailable for a few days next week. Last year I had a surgery which left my left vocal chord paralyzed. Unfortunately my vocal chord has not healed and I am going to have to get a silicone implant in my voice box so that I can talk again. My surgery is on Monday the 25th and I will be resting up for a few days afterward before resuming regular TU work. As for my fellow TUs, if my packages are out of date please feel free to update them, but I will be back soon!
