[aur-general] Licenses, GPL3 only
by Philipp 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi, I just looked up the GPL notation again. Here's the relevant excerpt from the wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards .. The (L)GPL has many versions and permutations of those versions. For (L)GPL software, the convention is: * (L)GPL - (L)GPLv2 or any later version * (L)GPL2 - (L)GPL2 only * (L)GPL3 - (L)GPL3 or any later version Now besides that this is obviously confusing there's another problem. How would you specify that a program is GPL3 only? Regards, -- Philipp -- "Wir stehen selbst enttäuscht und sehn betroffen / Den Vorhang zu und alle Fragen offen."

[aur-general] PKGBUILD: build() vs package() function
by Nicky726 30 Aug '10

30 Aug '10

Hello, hope I don't get this missplaced, as a quick search didn'd get me any results. When I have a package, which does actually build nothing -- say wine_gecko (a file only needs to be placed to a correct directory) -- I should only have package() function in the PKGBUILD, is that a correct interpretation? Now the makepkg is happy but the AUR complaints. I can workaround that with an empty build() function in that case the AUR is happy but the makepkg complains. So I just put in there a harmless echo and both are happy now. Actually my question is not that much about the correct workarounding, as it is about if I really get the meaning of the build() and package() functions correctly, that is for building build(), for installing package()? Thanx, Nicky. -- Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got Till it's gone (Joni Mitchell)

[aur-general] [multilib] wine_gecko, bin32-wine_gecko
by Nicky726 29 Aug '10

29 Aug '10

Hello, as for the recent multilib eforts, I read the "Changes to AUR and community due to the multilib repository" post here and noticed many bin32-* packages switching to withhout-the-bin32 name and I wonder what to do with wine_gecko/bin32-wine_gecko I maintain in the AUR. Is there a guideline for bin32-* packages? Thanx, Nicky -- Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got Till it's gone (Joni Mitchell)

[aur-general] libicq2000
by Nathan O 29 Aug '10

29 Aug '10

Should libicq2000 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11337 be deleted, the package gives that it can't find libsigc++ though it is installed. I did some research and it is said that libicq2000 will not work with the libsigc++-2. I am thinking that you are not able to install libsigc++ and libsigc++-2. If it is to be deleted, package ickle http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11336 should be deleted because it depends on libicq2000. Not sure what to do in this aspect. Thanks

I would ask to delete the package because the site as the source link are offline. -- corvolino ~ Linux User #459152 Jabber: corvolino(a)jabber.org Blog - http://corvolinopunk.wordpress.com Archlinux-br Developer Team

[aur-general] cmake build
by Nathan O 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

I have encountered having the issues with software that uses cmake as it's build system. Usually I get the warnings stating that there is an Insecure RPATH and Package contains reference to $srcdir. I believe I figured out how to fix the RPATH issue, because a previous package had Rpath issues and I used sed to add a setting(can't remember what the setting is called at this second). The issue I have now is the Reference to $srcdir, for the current package and future reference, how do you fix it? Thanks
