[aur-general] package deletion request
by Auguste Pop 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Hi, I am the current maintainer of osd-lyrics (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489) One of the upstream developer commented on the package and requested a rename to osdlyrics, and I have uploaded osdlyrics (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50877) accordingly to AUR. Although upstream page on googlecode is still osd-lyrics, their github name is osdlyrics. and I have found a git commit explicitly convert all osd-lyrics occurrences into osdlyrics. So, osdlyrics should be the upstream choice for the package's name. Sorry for all the mess this package has created. Best Regards,

by Det 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

Hey, This one (I hope) even has the links correctly defined. songbird: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7286 * A binary package, wrong naming (there's songbird-bin in the AUR too) songbird-nightly-bin: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32932 * Maintained, but severly out-of-date * Wrong naming * Replaced by songbird-auto-nightly songbird-auto-nightly: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39911 * Wrong naming * The contents of this one should replace that of songbird-nightly - this should be removed afterwards songbird-nightly: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13193 * Actually has the correct naming * Out-of-date * The contents of songbird-auto-nightly should replace this package's So to some up what I think is best: Replace: * songbird-auto-nightly -> songbird-nightly Remove: * songbird * songbird-nightly-bin * songbird-auto-nightly Thanks for your time, Det

[aur-general] Deletion Request: dkms-virtualbox_bin
by Jason Melton 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

The "main" AUR package, virtualbox_bin just added dkms support, which renders my dkms-virtualbox_bin[1] package unnecessary. Please delete it! Peace, Jason [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47572

20 Jul '11

Hey, There's currently 6 osd-lyrics packages in AUR, 4 of which are redundant. <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489> osd-lyrics: <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489>http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489 * Should be left and updated since it has the correct naming osdlyrics: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29787 * The project's name is "osd-lyrics" - not "osdlyrics" * Maintained, but severly out-of-date osd-lyrics-stable: <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50725>http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50725 * Wrong naming * Sadly, currently the only one up-to-date (decluding the -git package) osd-lyrics-stsable: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50724 * A typoed upload that the maintainer decided to leave in the AUR osd-lyrics-svn: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30488 * Upstream moved to git ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29787) Thanks for your time, Det

[aur-general] virtualbox additions package naming
by Ionut Biru 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

I've been criticized a lot because I choose poorly the name for guest additions. Right now the packages are like this: virtualbox-addtitions - contains the iso with guest additions for linux/windows/etc and is installed on host virtualbox-guest-additions - contains guest additions only for an arch linux system as guest. virtualbo-guest-modules - modules only for an arch linux system as guest. Now that virtualbox 4.1 is released I need help choosing this names. -- Ionuț

[aur-general] Deletion request for rasqal-latest
by Leif Warner 18 Jul '11

18 Jul '11

Hi, could you please delete my package rasqal-latest: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50322 It was a dependency for 4-store, which required the new API, but the version of rasqal in extra has been updated, so this package is redundant now. Thanks! -Leif
