For any interested package maintainers on the AUR (hence the cc to the aur-general list): The packages are now available in the AUR and ready to be adopted, some already have found maintainers :) See the full list below.

attack on octopi and derived chain
by Mat Moul 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

Hi, It seem I am attacked by xiota on my AUR octopi packages. We had an exchange for over 3 hours before it ended abruptly. I think I am within my rights and ask you to look at the situation. Comment on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/octopi This xiota attacks all my octopi packages. What can I do ? Greetings MatMoul

Your first account was suspended because you direspect the rules and you still continue to disrespect the code of conduct [1] I linked you before by writing ad-personam messages attacking MarsSeed and writing others offensive comments and git commit messages. Unfortunately the suspension has not stopped you in acting in a bad way and therefore I gave you a last warning. If you'll continue to write offensive messages in AUR your accounts will be permanently banned. It's up to you to change this behavior or to stop it immediately as it's not tolerated [1] https://terms.archlinux.org/docs/code-of-conduct/ -- Muflone

by Julien Virey 16 Mar '24

16 Mar '24

Hi, The package toggl-cli is not visible in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?O=0&K=toggl-cli. But it still exists in ssh://aur.archlinux.org/toggl-cli.git The package has not been updated since 2016. commit dd7340e8804776df85fe1eb82a79384e7f1349fb (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) Date: Mon Feb 22 06:00:17 2016 -0300 I was about to release a new package for this pkgbase ( https://github.com/watercooler-labs/toggl-cli) Can I request a deletion / reset of ssh://aur.archlinux.org/toggl-cli.git to use this pkgbase ? Salutations, Julien

How do I get an unpopular package that's needed by an existing package to extra?
by Lime In a Jacket (Aaron Liu) 13 Mar '24

13 Mar '24

Ey, A while ago I made the AUR package perl-acme-cow, which is needed for some cowfiles bundled with cowsay. Is there a process for dependencies to enter extra? I understand that it's not popular and doesn't meet the requirement, but without it, attempting to use certain bundled cowfiles results in an error. Cheers, Aᴀʀᴏɴ

Migration of p7-tools to cahute
by Eldeberen 11 Mar '24

11 Mar '24

Hi everyone, I currently maintain some packages on the AUR, related to Casio calculators. In particular we'll focus on p7/libp7/p7screen which are dedicated to communication protocols. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/p7 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libp7 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/p7screen Recently the developer (Cakeisalie5) rewrote these utilities and replaced them by a single package, Cahute. https://cahuteproject.org/ I made a new package for this, which is not yet on the AUR but can be found on my personnal forge: https://git.middleearth.fr/Packages/cahute So I have some questions for you ^^ - How do I manage the decommissioning of the old tools? - I understand I'm not allowed to use the 'replaces' directive on the PKGBUILD as it is not an official package, I am right? - Should I add some warnings on existing p7/libp7/p7screen packages warning that they are no more maintained? - On the cahute package, does the .install looks good? - More generally I'll take any advise that help me to comply with the AUR guidelines :) Thanks for your help, Eldeberen

removal of yuzu from the official repos
by james smith 05 Mar '24

05 Mar '24

as most of you have heard the yuzu has been shutdown by nintendo[1] and the github page removed[2] therefore the package needs to be considered for removal from the official repos as there will be no more updates and the package links to the github will be broken in a matter of time [1] https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.rid.56980/gov.uscourts… [2]https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu

> Odd, I've been accessing it in China over a VPN for many years. Do you have issues with any other website, and what happens when you replace "www" with "old"? The "old" one opens perfectly. I completely forgot that version of Reddit. But not with "www". No I do not have this problem with other websites. -- Best Regards, Abraham Sent with Tutanota; https://tuta.com

AUR Orphan Purge
by arch＠serebit.com 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Hello all, Over the past few days, about 3,000 packages were removed from the Arch User Repository as part of a larger cleanup effort. These packages all fit the following criteria: - No maintainer - Popularity equal to 0.00000 - 3 or fewer total votes - Most recent update before 2019-01-01 If a package that you actively use has been removed, and you are willing to maintain it, feel free to resubmit the package. The Git repositories of all deleted packages are still accessible[1]. Any future large-scale cleanup efforts will be preceded by an announcement on the mailing lists to avoid blindsiding users and maintainers. Best, Campbell Jones [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository#Acquire_build_files
