[aur-general] Arch Sugar
by Ray Rashif 26 Jun '09

26 Jun '09

Seeing that nobody has stepped up to offer and maintain this cute little thing, I have taken the initiative to start an effort. It's probably due to a lack of interest/need that none of the related packages are in [unsupported] in the first place, but even then I'd like to believe that some of you might be keen on contributing. And so I've put up some fundamentals: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sugar And if you're still staring at this with a question mark while refusing to go to the above wiki page: http://www.sugarlabs.org/ Oh yes I'm spinning this into an Arch "playbox" for my little siblings, particularly the youngest one who's 5 or something. Sure, I could just install the Fedora-based image and let 'er rip, but I wouldn't feel as comfortable =p

[aur-general] Removing comments from AUR

I agree that comments are not terribly useful on community packages, but I think they're important for [unsupported]. Maybe for community packages, only allow comments from the *maintainer* (or TU). My preference is to leave it as is. Granted, sometimes people report issues for community packages on the comment page, but that's no worse than people emailing the maintainer directly (since that's still not on the bug tracker), and is better because it's more visible.

[aur-general] delete request?
by Lukáš Jirkovský 25 Jun '09

25 Jun '09

Hello, I've just found out that the package bf-blender [1] is exact copy of my package blender-svn [2]. It's maintainer even doesn't bother to mention me in the PKGBUILD although it's clearly visible that only change made to it is adding blender-svn to conflicts and changing description. I think the package bf-blender should be deleted. [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26429 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13062 thanks in advance, Lukas "stativ" Jirkovsky

[aur-general] Qutim PKGBUILDs cleanup request
by Borislav Gerassimov 25 Jun '09

25 Jun '09

Hi, I'm currently the maintainer of most of the qutim's PKGBUILDs. Recently, some people requested the plugins which add support for different protocols to Qutim, to be named qutim-protocol-*-svn. Some request that the language support should be named l10n, I agreed with that too. For reference, here's the forum topic: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=74108 For changes to take place I'm requesting the following packages to be deleted from the AUR: (These are replaced by qutim-protocol-*-svn PKGBUILDS. I've added replace, conflicts and provides lines to them.) http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22518 - qutim-plugin-icq-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25969 - qutim-plugin-irc-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22516 - qutim-plugin-jabber-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22523 - qutim-plugin-mrim-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27276 - qutim-plugin-twitter-svn http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27278 - qutim-language-bg (replaced by qutim-l10n-bg) I am sorry for any inconvenience to the current users but I hope that there will be fewer unhappy people after that move. If there are any suggestions, please write in the forum topic above in order not to fill this mailing list. -- Поздрави, Борислав! | Greetings, Borislav! ----------------------------------------------------------- Природосъобразно писмо, не печатай!

[aur-general] Moving the AUR/community
by Aaron Griffin 25 Jun '09

25 Jun '09

Hey all, This is part informational, and part not. We have a donated server from SevenL networks that has sat mostly unused up until now. What we would like to do is more the AUR and community on to that machine, so that TUs can get real (limited) shell accounts and the people managing this side of the project get a bit more control. As far as I know, things are almost ready to go, but what we need to do is setup a good time to "freeze" the AUR and community so we can switch over the DNS and change checkout locations. Once this is complete, we can move forward with switching community to SVN and using the official dbscripts for managing the repo. This way you guys can get your own testing repo too! Sooo... the list, as I see it: * Decide on a date and time for the move * Get SSH keys from all TUs * Switch DNS over * Disable the AUR/community on gerolde Anything I'm missing? Suggestions as to a good date?

[aur-general] readline GPL violation on two pkgs?

Hi, I just do a quick scan of soft linked with readline and I think that these two pkgs that are linked with readline violates GPL: extra/tftp-hpa community/ngspice Both have the "old" BSD (4-clause) license and is linked with readline that is GPL, so there is an incompatibility [#1] In the case of ngspice recomends to link with libedit to avoid legal issues [#2] Cheers, [#1] http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html#OriginalBSD [#2] http://ngspice.sourceforge.net/relinfo.html -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi ( djgera ) http://www.djgera.com.ar KeyID: 0x1B8C330D Key fingerprint = 0CAA D5D4 CD85 4434 A219 76ED 39AB 221B 1B8C 330D

[aur-general] eclipse-pdt package
by Jordi Cerdan 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

Hi all, I maintain the eclipse-pdt-all-in-one package ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19272 ) in aur and I will soon face a problem: Until now there was only one package for i686, and there was no package for x86_64 arch. But now, there will be a package for this arch too. The problem is that there are 2 different links, one for each arch and I don't know if it's possible in the same PKGBUILD to detect the arch and to download the package needed. I know it would be easier to build 2 packages, but I would want to know if it's possible somehow to build one package for both architectures. Kind regards, -- Jordi Cerdan http://www.jordicerdan.com Andorra

[aur-general] virtualbox-modules and kernel 2.6.30?!
by Andrea Scarpino 22 Jun '09

22 Jun '09

Hi all, why virtualbox-modules is built with kernel 2.6.30?! The new kernel is still in [testing] so community packages should not depend on it. Anyway the new kernel will be moved to [core] soon, so I think is useless to fix this now. I want to remember all to wait until kernel is moved to [core] first to start updating packages.

[aur-general] dmraid 1.0.0-rc15
by Hvannentir 21 Jun '09

Hi I flagged out of date dmraid quite some time ago because I had to build my own package for dmraid rc15. Indeed, in order to make my software raid work with a Jmicron chipset, an important fix was necessary. ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219058 ) Why the package is still oudated ?
