I have filed bugs for the rest of the packages so it would be good if their maintainers can add the needed (make)deps and do the rebuild. Allan

Please remove my package "ogre-svn" (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28919) as it is deprecated. The new package "ogre-hg" (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35874) reflects upstream's decision to switch to Mercurial. -- Sven-Hendrik

[aur-general] Package removal request
by Anton Shestakov 23 Mar '10

I maintain sdlmess-git: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30033 The package is quite pointless as export in git is stopped (they used to use git-svn). I'll probably upload sdlmess-svn instead. Please remove it. Thanks.

Rebuilds are go. I repeat, rebuilds are go! Apart from haskell related packages and a couple of cross compilers, the rebuilds are nearing completion. Can the maintainers (or anyone else) of classpath and lilypond take a look at these packages. They currently do not build under a clean chroot and I have not looked into the issues further. Allan

Re: [aur-general] Removal request: qtscrobbler, qtscrobbler-cli
by Simon Legner 21 Mar '10

I just uploaded qtscrobbler-cli as qtscrob-cli. So the mentioned packages are free to be removed. I didn't get a result when searching for qtscrobbler in AUR. So I built and submitted qtscrobbler as a new package. Just as explanation for the duplication ... Mentioning the term qtscrobbler in the pkgdesc-field would solve this "inconvenience" ... I'll leave a comment there. Regards!

[aur-general] Duplicate packages/Orphaning request (go-openoffice-XX)
by Adam Hani Schakaki 18 Mar '10

18 Mar '10

Hello, Here are some duplicate packages in AUR: go-oo-bin-base: in official repo go-oo-ru: new package is named go-openoffice-ru go-openoffice-es: new package is name go-openoffice.org-es go-openoffice-sv-lang: duplicate to go-openoffice-sv Further I request for orphaning go-openoffice-es, go-openoffice-pt-br and go-openoffice-sv, the maintainer aren't updating it, and just the filename of the downloads changed and you cannot say that this is much work. So I would update it, if it will be orphaned. Thanks in advance Adam Hani Schakaki

[aur-general] How to name package?
by Dave 15 Mar '10

15 Mar '10

I would like to create a new package for lightning, which is the calendar extension for Thunderbird. I currently manage lightning-nightly for 32-bit systems, but for 64-bit systems (which I'm using now), I have to build the extension from source. This process initially downloads a lot of files, so if I created a package for this, it would take an hour to download and build a 1.2MB extension. Thus, I was going to build the extension on my computer and upload the XPIs to a server. However, I'm not sure what I should name the package and keep track of the versions. The process is: use mercurial to clone the comm-central code, then run a python script which will update the source with cvs. After that, I can run make to build the lightning extension, upload it to a server, and then allow anyone to download it. To update, I need only to run the python script and rebuild. Any suggestions on how the package should be named? Maybe -hg or -src? I'm also not sure which package version to use (since I may only update the XPI itself once a week/month).

[aur-general] Newcomer
by Érico Nunes 14 Mar '10

Hello, I'm a newcomer to this list. I've been using Arch for about a year and today I decided to learn what it takes to make an Arch package. I took a simple app I had developed in C++/OpenGL, learned how to use autotools to compile and install it. Had been using handcoded Makefiles before. Then, I followed the guidelines to write a PKGBUILD for it and went about making my package installable/uninstallable via pacman. Took a couple hours to grasp it right, but now that I understand how it works, I love Arch even more. I feel like helping the community and I think maintaining packages would be a starting point. How do I go about starting it, shall I just search for orphans/out of date that should/could be fixed, take them and thats it? :) Érico de Morais Nunes Engenharia de Computação Universidade Federal do Pampa Campus Bagé
