[aur-general] Got 2 remove these
by Det 28 May '11

28 May '11

Hey, So I figured these packages should be wiped out from the face of the AUR while we still have time. google-chrome-fix: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42507 - Chromium based browsers (Iron, Chrome, Chromium) have moved onto libjpeg-turbo so this libjpeg6 fix is not needed anymore kernel26-autogroup: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43689 - Autogrouping has been added to the official Arch kernel (this one is old and unmaintained anyway) nvidia-autogroup: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43777 - Same thing nvidia173-autogroup: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43952 - Still the same Thanks for your time, Det

[aur-general] Please orphan eclipse-photran
by Andrzej Giniewicz 27 May '11

27 May '11

Hi, the package eclipse-photran is terribly outdated and not working. I contacted maintainer by comments and email, including sending updated PKGBUILD, but there was no reaction (for 3 weeks). In current state it does not even exist at specified download location. I'd like to take over maintaining of this package because it's dependency of package I maintain and stops people from installing it. Thanks, Andrzej.

[aur-general] Deletion request: linuxwacom-bamboo-cth-ctl
by Andrzej Giniewicz 27 May '11

27 May '11

It was decided some time ago, that linuxwacom-bamboo-cth-ctl is very bad name for current state of the driver. Not only linuxwacom is name of driver for older X and Kernel, the patches supplied by the package are now more generic than supported upstream Bamboo CTH/CTL. It was announced month ago, that this package is to be replaced by wacom-drivers package, which is already in AUR. Thus I'd like to ask for deletion of linuxwacom-bamboo-cth-ctl package - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31540 Andrzej.

by Alper Kanat 25 May '11

Hey There, I wanted to adopt nodejs-git package so sent an e-mail to its maintainer dongsheng yesterday but he hasn't replied yet. The package is outdated for a while now and some other package node-git etc are pushed to AUR. So to maintain the package, I'd like to adopt it if possible. My username on AUR is: alperkanat Thanks! --- Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

[aur-general] GDeskCal
by pauline martin 25 May '11

25 May '11

I don't know if this project has been discontinued or not, but it is flagged as out of date and I have spent a good amount of time trying to find somewhere to download the most recent release. I was not able to find a link anwhere to download the source from the website: http://customize.org/gDeskCal . If I could be pointed in the right direction for the source code of this project if it is still alive that would be wonderful. It looks like a wonderful application and at least two other packages in the AUR depend upon it so I would love to get it updated or if it is a dead project to get it removed from the AUR. The package is in the AUR as gdeskcal and the two packages that I found that depend on it are: gdeskcal-skins and gdeskcal-skin-simple. Of the three only one is being currently maintained. I would be willing to maintain the other two if they are not a dead project. That one maintained project is using sources from a different site than the main project is hosted on. The maintainer is Syntheed. If I am reading the source right his sources are from freebsd, so it is not of any help locating the original program if it is still in development.

I would suggest to delete the crossover-games-unsupported package, because there is no crossover beta package at the moment. Roland
