[aur-general] a little PKGBUILD help please?
by scrawler＠gmail.com 12 Aug '08

12 Aug '08

Howdy guys, One of my PKGBUILDs has an architecture-specific make line, and I'd like to have a different line used depending on the architecture. Now, if someone grabs and uses the PKGBUILD unmodified from the aur, and has an x86 box, the build will be wrong. I have no idea how to add a check to my PKGBUILD. Can someone give me a hand? Want me to post it here, or do you want to just look at it in the aur? Thanks. --

I specify that i've already send an e-mail to the maintainer, two weeks ago, to explain him what happends but he haven't corrected his PKGBUILD. -- max-k <maxk69(a)free.fr>

[aur-general] x86_64 compilation box for devs and TUs
by Geoffroy Carrier 11 Aug '08

11 Aug '08

Hey! I have a new computer. I already gave access to a "prod" server to some TUs to compile for x86_64 systems. I will migrate their Unix accounts. I use this E-mail to notify them: port knocking isn't necessary anymore. Other devs and TUs can get an account by jabber/emailing me. I thank slubman very much for the CPU, motherboard, case, wifi card, etc. (people may know him from the archlinux.fr planet). He rocks (well, I need to say it as he will read this E-mail). root access via sudo will be provided in a first time, I might write some scripts to provide virtual machines to everyone later. Please makepkg -s and pacman -Rsc once done ;) SSH access won't be permanent: network connection kinda "sucks" (around 100kB/s upload), and I might use other OSes/move it from time to time. Here are the specs: Kernel : 2.6.25-ARCH CPU & Cache: Processor 0: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2400MHz, 4096 KB Cache Processor 1: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2400MHz, 4096 KB Cache Processor 2: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2400MHz, 4096 KB Cache Processor 3: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2400MHz, 4096 KB Cache 500GB (32MB cache) 7200rpm Seagate HD 4GB 800MHz 4-4-4-12 DDR2 RAM No [testing] on it, as I had problems with catalyst... I'll work on that later. Hostname will be announced in this thread later. Please contact me for earlier tests. -- Geoffroy Carrier

[aur-general] phpPgAdmin out-of-date
by Simon Streit 09 Aug '08

09 Aug '08

Hi, I'd like to point out, that the phpPgAdmin package in AUR is out of date. Furthurmore, $instdir in the PKGBUILD [1] doesn't point to the default directories of some web servers anymore. This is because Apache and lighttpd nowadays use the directory '/srv/http' as default, whereas the installation renders a bit useless. So here comes the fixed update: pkgname=phppgadmin pkgver=4.2.1 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="A web-based administration tool for PostgreSQL. It is perfect for PostgreSQL DBAs, newbies and hosting services." arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/phppgadmin" license=('GPL') depends=('php' 'postgresql') backup=('home/httpd/html/phpPgAdmin/conf/config.inc.php') source=(http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/$pkgname/phpPgAdmin-$p… md5sums=('d4cc67bea9a449ac0585bb4e8b2fc7e7') build() { instdir=$startdir/pkg/srv/http/phppgadmin mkdir -p $instdir cd $instdir cp -ra $startdir/src/phpPgAdmin-$pkgver/* . cp ./conf/config.inc.php-dist ./conf/config.inc.php } Regards, Simon [1] http://repos.archlinux.org/viewvc.cgi/community/system/phppgadmin/PKGBUILD?…

[aur-general] TU Resignation
by Sebastian 09 Aug '08

09 Aug '08

Hi, With the heavy university load I will have this semester, I don't think I'll manage to keep up with the mailing list and updating packages. I have mostly stopped using Linux altogether, and the install that I do have is a bit of a mess, so maintaining packages has become more of a nuisance than something I enjoy. I wanted to become a TU mainly to learn the workflow of a TU and generally just find out how the AUR works from the perspective of a TU, in order to develop AUR2. I think I have mostly done that, but AUR2 development has ceased. Hopefully I (or someone else ;) ) will pick it up and finish it off. I just don't have the time right now. Luckily I don't have many packages in community. I didn't really get around to moving the ones I wanted from unsupported to community. The ones that are there are free for the taking, if anyone wants them. If not, I can move them to unsupported and try to keep maintaining them, or orphan them. I will try to maintain the ones in unsupported, they don't get updates very frequently (or at all). The packages in community are: dbhub dina-font offlineimap

[aur-general] galaxium package ownership
by rabyte 08 Aug '08

08 Aug '08

There's some strange issue with the galaxium package actually maintained by myself (previously). I mainted it until last week or so and can't remember having orphaned it. Then I found it to be "taken over" by somebody else, namely ekerazha. I mailed him asking what happened, no response. So I really don't know what happened, but I'd be grateful if I got it back :-) -- Follow The White Rabyte . . .

[aur-general] GID reservation request for vlock
by bardo 04 Aug '08

04 Aug '08

Since the last few versions vlock requires a 'vlock' group, or another group that it is configured to use at build time. Vlock is a security program, so it would be better for it to have its own group, but I could also use an existing one, if someone can share a suggestion. Corrado

[aur-general] TU Application.
by Daenyth Blank 03 Aug '08

03 Aug '08

Hey all! I'm applying for a TU position, hopefully you'll consider me. My sponsor is Anders Bergh (anders). I go by the name Daenyth, and I've been using Linux for several years. I started on Slackware and switched to Arch about a year and a half ago. I'm 20, and I work as a sysadmin/tech support/office monkey at an ESL school in Boston. During my free time, I love listening to tons of music, chilling on IRC, and playing video games, among other things. I especially love playing around with pretty much anything Linux related. Right now I only maintain a handful of packages in the AUR[1], but I plan to expand what I have. One of my goals is to package lots of new software for Arch. I want Arch to be _the_ distro people talk about for package selection. I love the way Arch is designed, and the KISS philosophy, and I want to give back to the community that's been so wonderful to me. Currently my most popular package is "pkgtools". It's a bundle of things that I've written relating to arch packages. After collaborating with another author, I'll be including spec2arch, which is a tool aimed at helping developers provide basic PKGBUILD files from rpm .spec files. I also maintain a few Perl related packages, and hope to increase their number. I am one of the co-maintainers for the arch-games project[2]. For those who don't know, it's a user repo to provide binary packages for all the games in AUR, so that our users can more easily install them (many have long compile times or are otherwise annoying). Thanks for your consideration, --Daenyth [1] - http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?K=daenyth&SeB=m [2] - http://arch-games.twilightlair.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
