[aur-general] Moving jackbeat to [community]?
by Andrea Scarpino 16 Nov '09

16 Nov '09

Hi, I am updating jackbeat, which is orphan, in [extra] and the last release (0.7.2) needs portaudio from [community]. Still, jackbeat provides pulseaudio support if it is built with; pulseaudio is in [community]. This package is orphan, so I think is not a good solution if I update it and add another orphan package into [extra]. But I can update and move it to [community] or AUR (pkgstats says 4.47%). Maybe some TUs is interested. Opinions? -- Andrea `bash` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

[aur-general] Package removal request
by Ranguvar 16 Nov '09

16 Nov '09

Hello, I just recently adopted the firefox-hg-pgo package. Could you please delete it? In a few minutes I am going to upload firefox-pgo-minefield. The name fits better with the other firefox-pgo-* packages, and it is nice in that it is manually updated when a new Firefox HG revision passes the Mozilla Tinderbox unit tests :) Thanks! -- Devin Cofer (Ranguvar)

gnome-colors-extras-icons <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29052>is a duplicate of gnome-colors-icon-theme-extras<http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31415> . The latter is better named and is maintained, and the former has comments suggesting they wanted it deleted anyways :)

[aur-general] [pinentry-qt4] Package removal?
by Peter Lewis 14 Nov '09

14 Nov '09

Hi, I'm pretty sure that this can now be removed from the AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20913 It was the package for the Qt4 version of pinentry before that was incorporated in the standard pinentry package in [extra]. No maintainer, no-one objected in its comments section... Cheers, Pete.

[aur-general] perl-libwww duplicates
by Cedric Staniewski 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

Hi, There are several packages in the AUR which provides exactly the same package as perl-libwww from extra does. Apparently, it is a pacpan related issue and therefore these packages are required by other ones. Deleting them is likely no solution as they will get uploaded again by another pacpan user. Cedric => perl-http-headers http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25730 => perl-http-request http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25736 => perl-http-response http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25735 => perl-lwp-simple http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27566 => perl-lwp-useragent http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25734

[aur-general] Deletion request for mumble-11x-git
by Lauri Niskanen 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

The AUR package for mumble-11x-git [1] provides a compatibility client for older mumble versions, but uses new code from git. However, it is currently fully obsoleted by mumble-git [2] that provides the latest git version of the application (1.2.0-git) and the compatibility client. The 11x-client part in mumble-git is exactly the same as in mumble-11x-git. I think mumble-11x-git should be removed as obsoleted.
