systemd syntax support is now included in both vim and neovim.
I'm removing the vim-systemd package from [community].

Great, thanks! Just tested the updated imlib and fvwm packages from

There was a message on arch-general, noting that kiwi does not depend on gtk1.
As I understand the situation, the holdups concerning gtk1, kdelibs3
and qt3 are now resolved, and there is a strong consensus that moving
these packages is a good idea. We don't want to act as upstream for
old,
.
Please update the imlib package.
If it is now possible to move the old and unmaintained gtk1, qt3 and
kdelibs3 packages from the official repositories to AUR, that would be
great.

Which packages should be moved to [community] or AUR as a result of
kdelibs3 and gtk being moved, is up for discussion.
I think the timing is right for this and there seems to be consensus
that moving them is a good idea.

One suggestion is creating the Apache 2.4 PKGBUILD first, then talk to

If he should not be interested in the endeavor, talk to another dev.

Hi Gaetan,
Normally, only --pkgname and --pkgdesc are needed. The
sage-mathematics PKGBUILD is an extreme example. Compare with other
PKGBUILDs that uses gendesk for a more balanced picture.
Thanks for the new arguments, though, I added them to the list of
arguments for/against gendesk:

Nice work on the docker package! Thanks for pushing it. And thanks to
Bartłomiej for renaming.
- Alexander / xyproto
Could a dev please rename docker in [extra] to docker-tray and add
replaces=('docker=1.5')?
Daniel Isenmann has already okayed this.
- Alexander / xyproto
Ike,
No, because the new docker package will have epoch=1, like discussed above.
- Alexander / xyproto
and the accompanying .install file. Also,
docker probably needs to be built from a specific git revision (or
tag/branch, if upstream makes that available).
I fully agree that instructions that verbose does not belong in
official packages.

Good question.
Could pre_upgrade bail out if the old version of docker is present on
the system, giving a message that the user probably wants to install
docker-tray instead?
- Alexander / xyproto
Something like:
replaces=('docker=1.5')
in the docker-tray PKGBUILD?
Isn't that equally problematic, since that could cause problems if
docker (currently at version 0.7) reached version 1.5?
- Alexander / xyproto
A bit sad to be starting out the new docker package with the mark of
shame (epoch=1), but so be it. ;)
Summary / suggsted plan:
1. Rename docker (the old one) to docker-tray and add replaces=('docker=1.5')
2. Upload and add epoch=1 to docker (the new one)
I can do step 2 if someone can handle
Shouldn't that be 'docker=1.5'?
I thought users were not supported if they did not have an up to date
system, but I guess it doesn't hurt.

It's not a given that a vi clone is the most desirable replacement. If an
editor that is not a vi clone should be preferred, now or in the future, a
symlink named vi looks funny.
But mainly, the motivation for a thorough examination of where vi is
actually used in [core] was to bring some peace
