[aur-general] Changes in Arch packaging standards
Hi, Bartłomiej Piotrowski proposed packaging standard changes: if there are 2 versions of some package foobar, then older version (1.0 for example) must be named as foobar1-1.0 and newer version (2.0 for example) must be named as foobar-2.0. I did not see such rule yet on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards#Package_naming page, but my package openjpeg2 was silently removed with this reason however there are gtk* and wxgtk* packages that also violate this rule. I insist on giving me proof-link for this rule, including this rule into wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards#Package_naming) and renaming all packages according this rule. Or just leave it as is and stop dropping my packages. For more info see: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/38016

The 2.9 branch is a devel branch, keeping wxgtk for the stable branch and adding a suffix for the devel branch makes sense. Speaking of wxgtk, now that 3.0.0 is out, we will most likely need to get rid of wxgtk29 and create a legacy wxgtk28 package. Anyway, imho the rule should be: use plain name for the latest stable release, and add the appropriate suffix (usually 1 or 2 digits) for any other release. I prefer leave all things as is without any new rules. There are packages that have multiple stable branches.

I am against update to 0.4.93, as I said, is not a stable release and they're still development stable releases under 0.4.XX branch and unstable into 0.4.9X branch (as you see this is kinda confusing)..

Re: [aur-general] Orphaning selinux and xen
Nicky726 wrote: Hello, adopted SELinux stuff in AUR, I'll dig into it in my free time, so I may be spamming you with my lame questions. Please bare with me. To Sergej Pupykin: Do you have some special notes or knowledge you learned when maintaining SELinux stuff? My note is you need separate (virtual) machine to build selinux packages. Because of some apps detect selinux at configure time and then depends on selinux libs, but for AUR it makes no sense I think... Also it would be nice if you create default arch selinux policy) I am not sure if selinux-flex is still needed to build selinux policy.
Re: [aur-general] Orphaning selinux and xen
Hi, Xen and selinux moved to AUR. Feel free to adopt...
[aur-general] Orphaning selinux and xen
Hi, TUs, I am going to orphan SELinux and Xen packages. If nobody wants to maintain them in community, I'll move these packages to aur on next Sat.
[aur-general] Small regexp to update md5 in PKGBUILD
Hi, This script updates or inserts md5sum just run this script in PKGBUILDs dir. It works for my packages at least) It is better than makepkg -g PKGBUILD because it inserts md5 just before build() function.

[aur-general] Can not upload moinmoin package
Hi, after aur moving, I can't upload package, bigger than 100-200Kb. connection hangs after this size uploaded. I sniff conversation with wireshark and found 'TCP Acked lost segment' packet near the end. May be uploading is in progress, but very very slow. Please advise, how can I test it to find where is the problem? (ssh, cvs works quite slowly, but don't hangs)
Re: [aur-general] Can not upload moinmoin package
AG This could be a bug in the current scripts - can you scp the package? AG If so, then we might as well just wait for the svn move :S scp works slightly better. It reports 36.1KB/s average speed taking into accout 3 or 4 'stale' state period. scp moinmoin-1.8.4-1.pkg.tar.gz spupy...@aur.archlinux.org:/tmp/ moinmoin-1.8.4-1.pkg.tar.gz 100% 5518KB 36.1KB/s 02:33
Re: [aur-general] AUR Moving
Btw: The new website is prety slow for me. Is there some configuration issue with mysql or php? Maybe forgot to isntall apc or mysql cache to small? I've noticed this as well, as have several other Devs/TUs and also a user[1]. It looks like a networking issue (i.e. the load on the server is not excessive). @Aaron (or whoever has contact with the host): Is it possible to have the company providing the server look into this? I saw 'TCP Acked lost segment' and TCP retransmissions. It seems as some packets was dropped.
Re: [aur-general] AUR Moving
I've noticed the connection issues. It seems to be an off and on thing. We should definitely investigate if it continues. Maybe related, just got this email from SevenL: Today it works quickly.
Re: [aur-general] orphaning commuinty packages
So, as nobody seems interested I'll remove those packages now. I adopt logwatch
Re: [aur-general] moreutils in community
s according to the recent proposal (see s http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2008-December/003207.html) s there should not be packages added to community with less than 10 votes s or less than 1% in pkgstats.

[aur-general] GPL compliance (was Re: Circle that A)
Aaron Griffin wrote: It's not even about resources anymore. We spent over $2000 of donation money to fix our resource issue. I don't want to see it happen again... quite frankly, we can't afford it. Couple this with the fact that we NEED to produce source tarballs for packages (INCLUDING those in community), we're going to run into a space limitation soon. core,extra,community sources weights ~12G. Dropping games from community saves ~1G and substracts ~0.5G from sources. Also we may change archiving method to [pkg|src].[tar.bz2|7z] ))

Re: [aur-general] xhemi discussion (was: TU request)
Hi, I want to sponsor Edward Tjörnhammar(xhemi). His packages have small issues such as backup lines or missing ' || return 1', but they are good. So I ask to start discussion. I recently contributed a package 'inn' which I intend to continue working on. The package was added to [community] so I will continue with as inn-orig in AUR, user xhemi. If I were to become TU I believe that I can help to improve any number of packages in need of love but would continue with 'inn'. My sponsor is Sergej Pupykin. -- Edward Tjörnhammar
