[aur-general] svn and git package
by Axilleas P 30 Mar '11

30 Mar '11

Is it ok if I upload a package-git if there already is a package-svn in the AUR? Practically the git repo is a mirror of the svn one. I'm talking about clementine-svn in particular. -- (\_ /) copy the bunny to your profile (0.o ) to help him achieve world domination. (> <) come join the dark side. /_|_\ (we have cookies.)

[aur-general] Dropping multiget
by Stefan Husmann 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

Hello, I would like to drop the multiget package from [community] for the following reasons. - the tarball does not build. The error consist in a missing header file and was reported twice on upstream bugtracker without an answer - the latest svn-checkout builds, but the revision number is still low, it is 3. So what do you think? Should I upload a svn-based PKGBUILD or drop the package? In svn there is a desktop file, which never made it to the tarball. This would at least allow me to remove multiget from the list in FS#23387. Regards Stefan

[aur-general] Rename "storm"
by Aaron DeVore 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

I recently adopted the storm package. It should be renamed to python2-storm. "python" because it is a Python library, "2" because a Python 3 version will be put together in the not too far future. -Aaron DeVore

[aur-general] New list: arch-projects
by Thomas Bächler 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

A new list has been created: arch-projects. This list is for development discussion, patches and pull requests for initscripts, netcfg, dbscripts, devtools (and maybe other projects, those are the ones I could think of). Anyone is free to subscribe, but please, no user discussions (keep those to the forums or arch-general). Fun fact: There was a mailing list called arch-projects once, and it has been deleted, but the old archives are still there.

[aur-general] Store projects snapshots on sigurd
by Andrea Scarpino 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hi TUs, VCS PKGBUILDs in officials repositories should use a snapshot of the project and shouldn't fetch the sources directly from git; neither the snapshot tarball created by git (checksum changes every time). In [extra], we already do that storing the snapshot at ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/ . This is useful when a project dead or when website is down too. Then, we just set up ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/community/ , so our TUs can store their snapshots. Please fix your PKGBUILD to use it, but also please *do not* abuse of it: few space left on sigurd. Cheers. -- Andrea

[aur-general] cairo-compmgr in [community]

Hi, On Sun, Mar 27, 2011 at 1:58 PM, Florian Pritz <bluewind(a)server-speed.net>wrote: > I think this is a pretty nice solution: > > http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/cairo-compmgr/tru… > I did not noticed cairo-compmgr in [community] has switched to git version. I'm maintaining the cairo-compmgr-git [1] in AUR. Maybe there is some redundancy and the git version may be deleted. However if this only a temporary situation awaiting for a new upstream release then the AUR package should be kept. Does somebody know more about this package?

Re: [aur-general] [arch-dev-public] gcc-4.6.0 toolchain in [testing]

There was talk on their mailing list about making a new release in late February that would fix this, but that obviously never happened... Apparently, you may be able to rebuild it using LLVM. Allan

I would also want to know about this for my utorrent package, They only provide a bin 32 binary but I decided to make only one package for both archs, should I create a bin32-utorrent-server package? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43253
