[aur-general] XFlux Ownership
by gadget3000 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

Hi, I'm the previous maintainer of the xflux package ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xflux/) Over the past 24 hours someone else has become the maintainer of the package but I'm confused as to how because I never gave up "ownership" of it. Before I go on I just want to clarify that I'm not so bothered about getting the package back so much as understanding how someone else now maintains the package without my knowledge (I only found out after doing a system, update an seeing that that package got updated even though I didn't update the version number). Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the only way a maintainer can be forced to give up a package is if someone sends an email to the maintainer, asking them to update the package and the maintainer does not respond (either by email or by updating the package). I received an email yesterday (8th March) asking me to update the package, because it didn't build since the makepkg update, and I updated the package. Even if I hadn't updated it, it had been less than 24 hours since I even got the message so I don't understand why someone else has now taken over the package. So my question is does anyone know how I lost the package? Thanks, Gadget3000

[aur-general] please merge vlc-dev and vlc-ncurses

if it is possible, keep vlc-dev and remove vlc-ncurses. vlc ncurses is using git version and no longer needed. Thanks.

[aur-general] pacman4.1 PKGBUILD-git help needed - fixed
by Rob Til Freedmen 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

Thanks for all suggestions! I had an old git tree in the build dir which prevented a build. Though, I managed a successful build without reading any of your comments (and not knowing why it failed before) 'cause every reply went into my 'Sent Mail' folder not showing up in 'Inbox' - never had it before :( Only found your replies when already updated AUR Is it save to update/change the version scheme on AUR without going with epoch? rtf

[aur-general] SVN package, pkgver() and SRCDEST
by Rafael Ferreira 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

Hi there. I notice that if you have SRCDEST set in makepkg.conf, working in 'src/' folder with Subversion doesn't seem to work just like 'git log -1 ....' or 'git describe | ....', as it seems that 'src/' is simply a 'svn export' copy of $SRCDEST (e.g.: /home/foobar/sources). In pcsx2-svn [1], I'm using the following function to accomplish the task of getting pkgver dynamically: pkgver () { svnversion "${SRCDEST:-$srcdir}"/$pkgname } Any opinions or better solution to get pkgver?

[aur-general] AUR package: yogurt
by Jason St. John 08 Apr '13

08 Apr '13

I hate to be the guy ruining someone's joke, but is the "yogurt" package[1] really appropriate for the AUR? It just makes a symlink from "yogurt" to "yaourt" making fun of the latter's name. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yogurt/ Jason
