Hi, Please delete grub-efi-fedora http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38466 . I have renamed the package to grub-legacy-efi-fedora grub-legacy-efi-fedora http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47979 . Also please delete grub2-dmraid https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39455 and grub2-bzr https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44979 . The extra/grub2-bios 1.99~rc1 package supports dmraid now and grub2-bios-bzr https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41055 (based on grub2 1.99~rc1 PKGBUILD) provides grub2-bzr package (based on old grub2 1.98 PKGBUILD). Thanks in advance. - Keshav

I'm the maintainer of vifm-for-tiling-wm. The new version of vifm-0.5-4 is now working with tiling window managers, so this package is obsolete, please delete it.

[aur-general] AUR message notification
by Baptiste 06 Apr '11

06 Apr '11

Hello, I know there is a way to get an email notification when somebody writes a comment on a given package. How does it work ? There is a checkbox called "New Package Notify" on the account part of the AUR website, but I don't believe this is it. (actually, I have no idea what this checkbox is for, but anyway) Baptiste -- "C'est mieux, mais il y a plus cher ailleurs" : ____ _ _ _ _ ___ _ / ___| \ | | | | | / / | (_)_ __ _ ___ __ | | _| \| | | | |/ /| | | | '_ \| | | \ \/ / | |_| | |\ | |_| / / | |___| | | | | |_| |> < \____|_| \_|\___/_/ |_____|_|_| |_|\__,_/_/\_\ GNU/Linux fan && Archlinux user

[aur-general] vim-minibufexpl: New version from new maintainer, how to proceed
by Patrice Peterson 06 Apr '11

06 Apr '11

Hey all, I wanted to install the vim-minibufexpl package today and noticed a link to an updated version on its vim scripts page: http://fholgado.com/minibufexpl This person seems to have taken over upstream maintainership. My question: Can I upload this new version (6.4.0) to the AUR, flag the [extra] package out of date, and delete the AUR version if/when the [extra] package gets updated? Cheers, Patrice

If you have any other suggestion (web client or linux desktop client) which comes anywhere close please let me know. Evolution's threading just doesn't cut it, thunderbird's new one is close, but thunderbird is basically a mouse-only interface, the keyboard shortcuts are so horrific (and muttator is an abortion of a project AFAICS). I've spent quite some time exploring the options, and settled on this. Ideas always welcome, of course.

[aur-general] [deletion request] python-restkit
by Baptiste 04 Apr '11

04 Apr '11

Hello, The packages `python-restkit' [1] and `restkit-git' [2] should be deleted : they are both out-of-date and violating python packaging guidelines (I believe they come from an ancient time, when python3 was only a dream...) They are replaced by `python2-restkit' [3]. Whenever someone really needs a -git package, should he just create another, with the right name (`python2-restkit-git'). Thanks ! [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31599 [2] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41388 [3] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47885 -- GNU/Linux fan && Archlinux user

[aur-general] tapenade in aur
by Thomas Zervogiannis 03 Apr '11

03 Apr '11

Dear AUR maintainers, Please remove the package "tapenade" from AUR (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43412) I submitted it about a year ago when it was free to use but it seems it is no longer in the public domain (at least from http://www-sop.inria.fr/tropics/tapenade/downloading.html it seems that it is free to download but not directly - you have to fill in a questionaire and then get access to the binaries for academic use) Best regards, Thomas Zervogiannis
