[aur-general] AUR KDE clean up – part 3
by Jesse Juhani Jaara 26 May '12

26 May '12

Please remove the following KDE related packages. [1]keep: Upstream site/src-tarball has been nuked [2]kickass: -||- [3]kio-fuse-svn: Broken, for kde3, orphan, only 1 vote [4]kio_p7zip: orphan, out-of-date, broken, comment sugests it is not needed anymore, seems to be for kde3 [5]klear: orphan, screenshots would suggest it to be KDE3 app but it depends on kdelibs, VLC can be used instead [6]knetworkmanager: We no longer have dbus-qt3 in repos, nor AUR, orphan(Does have lots of votes tought, so it might get easily a maintainer), but is it worth keeping a KDE3 networkmanager applet around? Who uses "non"bloated and simple KDE3 instead of KDE4, but then goes and uses a bloated networkmanagement app like network manager instead of lighter ones? TU(s) it up to you to... [7]knewz-svn: Just some random UseNet reader app, upstream dead (by a quick look), orphan, only 3 votes. Alternatives exist like kwooty (in AUR). [8]knice: KDE3 app, depends on KDE4 libs, orphan, not too many votes. [9]knoda: orpha, legacy KDE3 app, only 1 vote, according to comment, does not build with pythnon2.7 [10]koffice-2.3: I think this was ment to be a "beta" package for the 2.3 version when we were still on 2.2, orphan, out-of-date, only 4 votes, needs new download link mirror [11]kommander: super old duplicate of extra/kdewebdev-kommander [12]kommando: orphan, KDE3 with KDE4-libs as deps, one can easily live with out it [13]komparator: orphan, comment on needed changes been there for 2 years, still not fixed. KDE3 app [14]kompose: One can live without. In general PKGBUILD seems to be inn somewhat decent condition (it hasn't been updated since 2009, so things are a bit off). This could potentionally be left in AUR, but considering it is orphan KDE3 app I will include it here. [15]konch: Upstear site nuked, orphan [16]kpad: orphan, there are gazillion differend text editors out there one can use (altought, many of them cant do ftp or send email....), KDE3 KDE4-libs [17]kpdf2: KDE3 pdf reader, PKGBUILD uses KDE4-libs, orphan [18]kpc: XD doesn't even work wit KDE 4.1.3, not to speak of 4.8.0 [19]kpogre: orphan, designed for libpqxx 3.X, but ve have version 4.0 in repos. [20]kpopassistant: Lots of 2012 updated mailchecks out there. Getting rid of an one from 2007, wont hurt anybody [21]krawlsite: Didn't build in Oct2011 due to old code base, wont compile in 2012 eather, orphan [22]kpv: orphan, KDE3 with KDE4 libs. [23]krecordmydesktop: qt-recordmydesktop in community does the same [24]krypt: orphan, KDE3 app, low vote count --------------------------------------------------------------------- [1]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=4247 [2]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20325 [3]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=4505 [4]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5414 [5]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=2415 [6]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19526 [7]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13889 [8]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13216 [9]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37468 [10]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45110 [11]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=1824 [12]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5891 [13]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=3225 [14]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16579 [15]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=10363 [16]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7595 [17]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=12299 [18]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24624 [19]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9372 [20]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9799 [21]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=3434 [22]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14271 [23]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9669 [24]https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15235 ##################################################################### Please merge the following KDE related packages.

[aur-general] Deprecation of 'gimp-plugin-deskew' package
by Gosha Tugai 26 May '12

26 May '12

The 'gimp-plugin-deskew' AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34210) is deprecated, since it's sources are invalid. I have submitted the 'gimp-plugin-deskew-git' package to replace it. I suggest that the non-git package is removed, to prevent confusion.

[aur-general] postinstall script and local user directory
by Jorge Barroso 23 May '12

23 May '12

Hello, I need a little help with a postinstall script, the script should make automatically a few postinstall steps on the LMD installation, qhat the script should make it's to detect if a directory called .LMD on the home directory exists, if it exists, it shows an informative message, if it doesn't exist it makes it. All right the problem is: It acts over the root directory, and I want it to act over the user normal directory (/home/'user') For you tu understand what I mean, this is the code: http://pastebin.com/57L2Jt2P <- With that it looks for a directory called "~", not "home" directory I als otried with an array, and it was here when it used root like home directory, and not the local user directory: http://pastebin.com/TCh94dC9 I want the script to do the same that it makes with the second paste bin, but not in root, it should be, in my pc for example, on /home/jorge... Thanks in advance
