[aur-general] Announcement Input
by Christian Hesse 29 Jul '14

29 Jul '14

Hello everybody, I would like to have something like an announcement input for AUR packages. Just like comments, but the announcement should be editable by the maintainer only and shown at the top all the time. This could be handy for something like: > Currently this application does not remember passwords. This is because > gnome-keyring is broken. (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39913) Preventing users from complaining over and over again when comments move down. Or: > This is a git package. Most of the time it compiles fine with $dependency. > If it does not please try $dependency-git. Any comments? -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Chris get my mail address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig */b/42*2-3)*42);}

[aur-general] I forgot my AUR username
by 朱晋玄 27 Jul '14

27 Jul '14

Sorry to bother you all with this. Hours earlier, when try to update a PKGBUILD to AUR, I find that my username escapes me.(I think I have typed a correct password because I have just reset my password.) What should I do to recover my usrname of this email address? Thank you.

[aur-general] [HEADS-UP] Meta data and split package support in the AUR
by Lukas Fleischer 27 Jul '14

27 Jul '14

Hello, I plan to do the next major AUR release by late May or June and I thought this might be a good time to let people know what is going on behind the scenes. AUR 3.0.0 will be able to read metadata from source packages. These metadata will be read from a file called .AURINFO (contained in the source tarball). Dave wrote several tools [1], including mkaurball which can be used to automatically build a source tarball with metadata so you don't need to worry about creating this file on your own. Having this information available means that: 1. We can drop the PKGBUILD parser from the AUR. The parser will still be available in the upcoming release but it will be marked as deprecated and a warning will be displayed whenever someone tries to upload a source tarball without metadata. 2. We can implement other things that were blocked by the AUR PKGBUILD parser being incomplete and inaccurate. Specifically, the next release will support split packages. Things that are on our TODO list: * Test the new AUR code. The split package code is still experimental. * Fix and extend the AUR RPC interface. * Test Dave's pkgbuild-introspection. * Move pkgbuild-introspection (or at least mkaurball) to [community]. It would also be nice to get metadata generation integrated into makepkg so that people no longer need to install mkaurball to generate source tarballs for the AUR. Regards, Lukas [1] https://github.com/falconindy/pkgbuild-introspection
