[aur-general] fbsplash orphan request
by Heiko Baums 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

Could someone, please, orphan the AUR package fbsplash (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13541)? It needs to be updated, the theme darch needs to be removed, because it's not downloadable anymore and fbsplash is therefore not installable, the dependencies need to be changed, and some other changes have to be made. Unfortunately the current maintainer thoffmeyer doesn't respond to the comments and to private e-mails. I'd like to readopt this package and work together with kujub to improve fbsplash. Heiko

Hi, Python's ConfigParser module is part of the standard library right now, So even if you don't have this package installed you can do: $ python >>> import ConfigParser And this will work :) Maintainers of these packages should rebuild the packages and remove the dependency of the PKGBUILD: blueproximity chandler64 coherence coherence-svn crunchyfrog genesis-sync gnome-agenda-svn gscrobbler gtg gui-microdia-git jabbim-svn mfe nautilussvn noteo python-enthought-mayavi python-matplotlib Opening a bug in the flyspray anyway Cheers -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Linux Counter: #359909

i'd like people with 32bit machines to test http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26733 for me. for some reason it gives me a "wrong ELF class" error on my i686 machine, so you'd have to actually run it before you can confirm that it works.. thanks, M Rawash

[aur-general] scm naming conventions
by Ian Denhardt 02 Jun '09

02 Jun '09

Hello everyone, This is my first time posting to this list, though I've been lurking for a while. I have a thought, and forgive me if this would be better addressed on a different mailing list; I wasn't quite sure which to use, and I was already subscribed to this one so I chose it. right now for packages for development versions we use *-svn if the project uses svn, *-cvs if they use cvs, *-git if they use git, etc. I feel a better solution would be to use a single suffix for all development versions, say *-scm (source code management). This is already done in Exherbo. This would be advantageous because we wouldn't have to change the package name on the occasion that upstream switches tools, and it would make things more clear from a user perspective; right now if there are two scm packages in aur, you might have to do some digging to figure out which is current (though granted this isn't usually very difficult.) Of course, a policy change like this would require changing the names of a lot of packages in the short term. I'm curious to hear other people's thoughts on this. -Ian
