[aur-general] gtkd delete
by Nathan O 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

Also found another, gtkd http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22002 The package won't compile, the last commit to the author's git repo is around 2 years ago. I tried using dsss like it said to use to build it and also renamed GNUmakefile to Makefile and ran make. If I used dsss, it would not install anything in the $pkgdir. If I tried running make, then it would give a compile error.

[aur-general] "bin32-skype" in [multilib] (as "skype")
by Malte Rabenseifner 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

CCing my announcement in the comments of bin32-skype (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7914) please keep the package for at least 7 days to get people a chance to switch to [multilib]. "Since the announcement of the new [multilib] repository yesterday (http://www.archlinux.org/news/508/) I strongly encourage ALL users of bin32-skype to switch to the Skype package of that repository and report bugs and problems to the Arch bug tracker at http://bugs.archlinux.org (be sure that you have switched to "Community Packages"). I already have done testing of the package in [multilib] since it has been uploaded and I am bug free. Please help to find more bugs on different systems so that the change will go smoothly when this package will be removed from the AUR." -- Malte Rabenseifner, Germany mail(a)malte-rabenseifner.de -- Beneath knowing, understanding.

by Nathan O 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

Also another package I am requesting to be deleted is frupple http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28699 It doesn't run. I would attempt to send a bug report to the author, but it seems the author no longer maintains it anymore. If I remember correctly, the site states the file was uploaded on "2008-07-31" Thanks

Can somebody delete FSirc http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20459 . The author no longer has it listed on his site, and I found a git page for it, but the last update was in 2008. Nothing is listed as depending on fsirc. Thanks

[aur-general] lib32-libstdc++5?
by Ng Oon-Ee 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

Hi all, Just realized http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11191 is orphaned, and that there's quite a few comments below specifying exactly how to update it. Considering how many packages depend on it, I'm surprised its orphaned, but when I checked the PKGBUILD its a well-recognized name. Should I just adopt this package to update it and orphan it? Or is it more polite to wait for Pierre since I think its his package based on the name there. Or does the orphan indicate he doesn't want this package anymore? Thanks. Ng Oon-Ee

[aur-general] Orphan (adoption) request for x48 and delete request for x48-emulator
by René Herman 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

Good day. [this same message has been hanging in the non-subscriber moderation queue for a few days now] I'm a recent arch user (but longtime linux user) and would like to adopt the x48 package, an emulator for the HP-48 scientific calculator. There are two versions of the package on the AUR, x48 and x48-emulator but both are out of date and unfortunately neither listed maintainer (also CCed) has responded to email. I've created a new PKGBUILD updated to the current 0.6.3 and have also patched x48 itself to have it use the normal archlinux X11 app-defaults directory (/usr/share/X11/app-defaults) instead of a previously hard-coded /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults. The new PKGBUILD furthermore installs the "ROMDump" program so people can use it to grab the ROM from their own HP-48s. Might also like to do more serious work on the emulator in the future. I suppose the x48-emulator package will have been created only because back then the x48 maintainer also didn't respond -- if I can adopt the x48 package, the x48-emulator package could be deleted I suppose. I'm not a subscriber to the list; if I look through the archives I believe it's not usual to attach src archives but if anyone want to see my version, it's at: http://members.home.nl/rene.herman/arch/x48-0.6.3-1.src.tar.gz I'm "rene" on the AUR (with only the "ufiformat" package as of now). Regards, Rene
