[aur-general] Python AUR tarball naming
by David Campbell 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

I am updating some python tarballs in the AUR which appear to have been abandoned with the python switchover and don't have python3 versions. I created some python2 versions, named python2-foo, as this is what I thought was the correct practice, but found out the main(core, extra) python packages are not being renamed until python3 versions are available. So what is the correct practice? Should the old python tarballs be deleted and replaced by python2-foo versions or should the python tarballs just be made to work with python2?

[aur-general] AUR cleanup
by Dave Reisner 27 Jan '11

27 Jan '11

So, on the subject of cleanup, I've come across a list of 530 packages on sigurd that aren't accessible from the web interface. Judging from some of the names, I'd wager that these are packages which were deleted but something went wrong, etc etc. In total, it's about 20mb of space that would be freed. Any reason these shouldn't just be purged by someone with root privs? dave
