The package crossover-pro is already a long time out of date. I would overtake it. The current maintainer isn't responding. ;) Roland

[aur-general] The Unarchiver and provides field
by Cédric Girard 23 May '11

23 May '11

Hi, I'm maintaining The Unarchiver PKGBUILD [1] in the AUR. The Unarchiver is an objective-c application for uncompressing archive file. This is AFAIK the only free implementation of RARv3 format. As this application provides an unrar functionnality, does it make sense to add a "provides=('unrar')" field in the PKGBUILD? The Unarchiver is not a drop-in replacement for the "unrar" command. The binary are not the same and the syntax is different. -- Cédric Girard

[aur-general] php52 package dropped from [community]
by Evangelos Foutras 21 May '11

21 May '11

Hi all, I've gone ahead and removed the package that provided PHP 5.2. Upstream dropped support for it at the beginning of the current year, so I also didn't upload it to the AUR. If anyone was still on PHP 5.2, please upgrade to 5.3 using the packages in [extra]. :) Cheers.

[aur-general] Orphaned Banshee in Extra Repository Outdated
by pauline martin 20 May '11

I was looking in the repositories earlier and noticed that the banshee in there is flagged out of date. Therefore, I went and found the tarball and with assistance from a few other PKGBUILDS was able to get it to build. Here is the PKGBUILD: # Contributor: Pauline123 (Pauline Martin) <321eniluap at gmail dot com> # Contributor: György Balló <ballogy(a)freestart.hu> # Contributor: Matthias Sobczyk <matthias.sobczyk(a)googlemail.com> # Contributor: GyÃ¶rgy BallÃ³ <ballogy(a)freestart.hu> pkgname=banshee pkgver=2.1.0 _pkgver=2.1 pkgrel=3 pkgdesc="Music management and playback for GNOME (development release)" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://banshee.fm/" license=('MIT') depends=('boo>=0.8.1' 'dbus-sharp-glib>=0.5' 'desktop-file-utils' 'gconf-sharp' 'gdata-sharp>=1.4' 'gkeyfile-sharp>=0.1' 'gstreamer0.10-base-plugins' 'gtk-sharp-beans>=2.14.0' 'gudev-sharp>=0.1' 'hicolor-icon-theme' 'libgpod>=0.7.95' 'libmtp>=0.2.0' 'libwebkit>=1.2.2' 'libxxf86vm' 'musicbrainz' 'media-player-info' 'mono-addins>=0.3.1' 'mono-zeroconf>=0.8.0' 'notify-sharp-svn' 'shared-mime-info' 'taglib-sharp>=2.0.3.7' 'xdg-utils' 'hal') makedepends=('intltool' 'gnome-doc-utils') optdepends=('brasero: CD burning' 'gstreamer0.10-good-plugins: Extra media codecs' 'gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins: Extra media codecs' 'gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins: Extra media codecs' 'gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg: Extra media codecs') provides=('banshee') conflicts=('banshee' 'banshee-1-svn' 'banshee-git') options=('!libtool') install=${pkgname}.install source=( http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/${pkgname}/${_pkgver}/${pkgname}-${p… ) md5sums=('4cbec8d2640be5b9b6157d3245969153') build() { export MONO_SHARED_DIR="${srcdir}/.wabi" mkdir -p "${MONO_SHARED_DIR}" cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \ --disable-docs \ --disable-static \ --disable-scrollkeeper \ --with-vendor-build-id=ArchLinux make } package() { export MONO_SHARED_DIR="${srcdir}/.wabi" mkdir -p "${MONO_SHARED_DIR}" cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}" make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install install -D -m644 COPYING "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/COPYING" } Here is the banshee.install that goes with it: pkgname=banshee post_install() { update-desktop-database -q update-mime-database usr/share/mime &> /dev/null xdg-icon-resource forceupdate } post_upgrade() { post_install $1 } post_remove() { post_install $1 } Hope this was of some help. :) Pauline123

[aur-general] optional dependencies that require explicit installation
by Michael Schubert 18 May '11

18 May '11

Hi, I'm trying to make a PKGBUILD for a scientific library (libsbml). It has bindings for C/C++ that are installed by default and for a variety of other languages on demand. I'm not quite sure about the proper way to handle this: - for a language binding to be built, the package (e.g. python, perl, ruby, etc.) need to be installed and they need to be enabled in cmake using the -DWITH option - if a language binding is build, I need to set the path as well (because it is somewhere nonstandard by default) So, in order for this to work: - how should I check if a package is installed? I found no if-available option in the cmake scripts; pacman -Q would be an option (the best one?), or checking for the existance of a specific file (probably not so good) - if I'd like to separate build() and package() routines, is there a way of getting around adding each binding as a variable in global scope?- that does not seem like an optimal solution given the other packaging standards Thank you for any advice. Michael
