[aur-general] Merge nicotine-plus-svn under *git

Hello I am nicotine-plus-svn[1] and it's git version[2], because the source
has changed from svn to git, so, could you please merge the first on the
second one? thanks

[aur-general] 4th PKGBUILD help

[Jorge Barroso]

Hello I'm trying to solve some problems on the 4th’s PKGBUILD because the one 
I have already uploaded doesn’t build aswell. I think it’s all right but when 
it compiles it fails on the package() function. Here are the PKGBUILD[1], and 
two patches[2][3] I’m using as source:

[1] http://pastebin.com/NgDGazt2
[2] http://pastebin.com/ewNSynCd -> Makefile.patch
[3] http://pastebin.com/jdCaXeWu -> Makefile.UNX.patch

The problem is that “make DESTDIR=”$pkgdir” install” doesn’t install on 
$pkgdir, at least when I try to compile it with makepkg.

Thanks Chris, I’ll try with a patch for Makefile to avoid texting so much, or 
simply install it manually.

Hello, I need those two packages for the package Abraca[1], but I don’t know

[aur-general] Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

Hi, I've been looking for a manga downloader in AUR repository, but I
didn't find the one I wanted, so I tried to make the package by myself and
upload it (http://code.google.com/p/linux-manga-downloader/).
There are just .deb and .rpm packages, but I extracted the package and
tried to make the installation mannualy, to see what should the 'build' do,
but I'm unable to install it, because what comes in the package are shell
scripts, the launcher and nothing else usefull... so I would like someone
to help me to make the PKGBUILD to install the program and upload it to aur.

Thanks in advance

[aur-general] Fwd: Re: Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

Thanks Jesse :) I've already installed it on my PC and it works, so I've
started making the PKGBUILD with your help and the steps I did. I've wrote
all the information, and by now that's what I have:

# Maintainer: Jorge 

pkgname=linux-manga-downloader
pkgver=0.2.0.1-5
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A manga downloader for linux, it allows fownloads from many
English and Spanish websites"
arch=('any')
url="http://code.google.com/p/linux-manga-downloader/";
license=('GPL3')
depends=('libnotify' 'gtkdialog' 'wget' 'lynx' 'zenity')
install=
source=($pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)


   --Well, about the build, I'm not sure (0% sure) but I think
it could be something like that:


cd "$srcdir/$pkgname_$pkgver/usr/local/bin"
chmod +x 4chan
chmod +x animea
chmod +x danboru
chmod +x futahentai
chmod +x ge-2
chmod +x lmd
chmod +x lmd-fu
chmod +x mangafox
chmod +x mangareader
chmod +x mangashare
chmod +x mcanime
chmod +x pown
chmod +x submanga
chmod +x zerochan

cp 4chan /usr/local/bin/4chan
cp animea /usr/local/bin/animea
cp danboru /usr/local/bin/danboru
cp futahentai /usr/local/bin/futahentai
cp ge-2  /usr/local/bin/ge-2
cp lmd /usr/local/bin/lmd
cp lmd-fu /usr/local/bin/lmd-fu
cp mangafox /usr/local/bin/mangafox
cp mangareader /usr/local/bin/mangareader
cp mangashare /usr/local/bin/mangashare
cp mcanime /usr/local/bin/mcanime
cp pown /usr/local/bin/pown
cp submanga /usr/local/bin/submanga
cp zerochan /usr/local/bin/zerochan

and well... the same with the /usr/share directories. I've although thought
writing that on an install script, but then I don't know what to write on
"build"

I think that I shouldn't write directly /usr/local/bin, but I don't know
the "$variable" name of the directories...

Thanks again jesse, and hope someone helps me to finish with that first
package ;)

Re: [aur-general] Fwd: :Re Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

Thanks to both you two Jesse and Chris, I won't copy the both replies here
to make the message shorter. I did at first what Chris told me about the
install option, I liked it, but, at least BY NOW, I'll use the chmod/copy
combination, because I'm not new, but I know less things than that I
thought, and I would like to learn little by little. Respect to Jesse's
message, I did it with your help, correcting some little details and I
think now it's correct :D I would like a little introduccion to "sed"
option, because I didn't know it, not a lot, but, as "cp" copies a
directory on another one, what makes "sed"? :) Thanks for your help, and
this is my PKGBUILD by now, hope it's correct ;)

The two "echo" at the end are to add two comments that I considered
important things to know :)
So... what do you thing about the PKGBUILD now? :)

Re: [aur-general] Fwd: Re: Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

No problem.

>*From the man page: "sed - stream editor for filtering and transforming 
>text".*Basically it's a non-interactive text editor.
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"/* changes every
occurrence of "usr/local" with "usr" in all the files in
${pkgdir}/usr/bin. But only the first one in every line (I think). I
assume it's needed because you app by default expects to be in
/usr/local/bin while you install it in /usr/bin.

I may be wrong, but I think that the last echos will not be executed.
If you want to display some messages after installation, use an
install script.

On a side note, please don't break the threads by. Also, most email
clients can hide the quoted text, so no problem there either.
And on another side note, sorry for top posting in my previous reply,
I didn't notice it.

--Chris Sakalis



Well these should go to the install file. Create a file called
ldm.install and set install=ldm.install in the PKGBUILD. Take a lookt at
file /usr/share/pacman/proto.install, you should only needd the
post_install function and put those echos in there :D
PKGBUILD is used to build a pkgname-version-pkgrel.pkg.tar.xz package
that you install with pacman. Pacman then reads the .install file from
that package and does what it tells it to do and copies the files to the
system. Most people are lilely to just install this from the AUR, so
they would see that message. But in case say someone sends the redy
built pacman package to a frind the friend would not saee that message,
but if it is in install file he will.


You are also missing the md5sums variable from the package. Run
makepkg -g in the directoey where the PKGBUILD is and copy the output
into the PKGBUILD.
(I myself have an alias setup fot that. "makesum='makepkg -g >>
PKGBUILD'" this gives me a command makesum that automatically appends
the md5sums to the end of the PKGBUILD)

Sed can do a lot of things. Basicly it reads text, does something to it
and slips the mangled text out. 's|original|new|' for example would
replaces every single word original with the word new.

I think you should read these:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pkgbuildhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkghttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR
And here is a werty comprehensive guide to
sed.http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html
I myself can only use the replace command 's' XD



Ok, I got it!! And it works making sudo pacman -U etc.
This is the final PKGBUILD:
# Maintainer: Jorge

Thanks guys, thanks you two, this is my first package ever, even I
tried sometimes on fedora and ubuntu, this is the first package I
submit *-* so I'm like...
I don't know, so so happy of course :D your my heroes :D XD I'm just
18 and that was an important achievement. Well, I'll submit it right
now :D
I've uploaded the package here for to see it if you want->
https://rapidshare.com/files/3651110504/linux-manga-downloader-0.2.0.1-5Beta-any.pkg.tar.xz
If you want to try it, see what I did, etc. Any feedback will be well received

Thanks you both you guys :D!!

Re: [aur-general] Fwd: Re: Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

Glad to be help. ^_^ Here have a *cookie* you've done great.


A small note about mails... as Chris alredy mentioned. Your mails work
well in gmail it seems. Atleast my Android phones regular gmail app
puts all of these under same thread, but my dekstop mail client gets
them as individual mails, breaking the thread, while not being seroius.
Something is wrong with our way of replying or gmail settings I think.
Also about quoting. Like Chris said most mail clients can hide the
quoted message without any problems but it stoll nice to just cut
the parts you need and write that few lines of text under them. Like I
do, I think this is the way found to be good commonly (Might be
mistaken).


jaja alright, I'll take that cookie XD

I submitted the package and it can already be installed from aur.

Talking about the mails, I'm using the desktop version aswell, I don't know
how to make my messages to be tracted as an answer if that's what should
happen.
So I copy and paste the message I'm going to answer to, and then I write
the answer... I hope with that will be enough ;)

Thanks again!! XD

Re: [aur-general] Fwd: Re: Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

> My mail client (Evolution) still isn't happy with this

>Fix the pkgrel, it should only contain numbers.
It is the version of the PKGBUILD file, and has nothing
to do with the application version. pkgver is there
for that.



Oups... so I don't know, maybe... could be because I don't receive single
mails? I receive a Digest with all the recent mails, and I erased all but
the mail I was going to answer... :S I got to say that on the aur-general
Archive http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2012-May/ my
mails are mostly grouped by thread... so... I don't know... :S

I know that pkgrel is not to do that, but, could you help me then with
anything? pkgver should be "0.2.0.1-5Beta", but on pkgver, I can't write
more than "0.2", and if the proyect releases (for example) a new version
called 0.2.1.0, I shoul let it like 0.2 aswell... what can I do to write
the full version path?

Thanks and sorry for breaking messages... I'll look up how not to do that :S

Re: [aur-general] Fwd: Re: Linux Manga Downloader

[Jorge Barroso]

Actually, $pkgver can contain letters. So you can set it as
"0.2.0.1.5Beta" or "0.2.0.1Beta5" or something similar without the
dash. And then set the proper $pkgrel for your PKGBUILD.

--

Ok, I did and rename the pkgver as 0.2.0.1Beta5. I also changed the pkgrel
to 2, so now the version shown when the package is going to be downloaded
is "0.2.0.1Beta5-2" :) look at the PKGBUILD if you want and tell me, I
think now it shouldn't be any problem :S

Yep XD so, thanks to you Chris for your help, I'll correct that little bug

Hello, I've noticed that the package arenalive 2-1 is obsolete, orphaned

[aur-general] iceweasel md5sum problem

[Jorge Barroso]

Hello, I'm trying to submit the web browser Iceweasel to aur, but I'm
having a problem with the md5sum.
I wrote the PKGBUILD, used makepkg -g to generate the md5sum and put the
output into the PKGBUILD. I made the soruce package with makepkg --source
and there was no problem, and doing just makepkg to build the whole
package, it is possible to install iceweasel from that package without
problems, etc. the only problem is that, when downloading and installing
from aur, it gives an error on the integrity check. Could anyone explain me
why does it happens? my PKGBUILD it's this one:

Thanks to all of you, those are my first packages as you should know and
I'm using the proto of /usr/share/pacman to make the pkgbuild, so I'm using
those arrays I think I can use for any package, but I didn't know that ()
will confuse makepkg (so sensitive...), I'll try to correct it.

The md5sums in the pastebin is different because it has been changing
between two different outputs anytime I did makepkg -g, but even now that
it is not changing, and the makepkg -g output is ever the same, it stills
not accepting it.

Jesse, I'll try then to use that PKGBUILD, I looked for it, because I
suposed it should exist, but as I didn't find it, I downloaded the package
and modified the .PKGINFO file. Thanks for your help with that PKGBUILD. I
know archlinux is a non libre system, and that's not bad at all because,
for example, flash it's very usefull nowadays, because gnash has a lot of
things to improve to be a serious subtitute, but, ever I can, I try to use
free software (if it has not great problems, like gnash taking my earlier
example), and Iceweasel with iceweasel-sync it's as good and fast as
firefox, so... I liked it and thought about submitting it :)

Jaja yeah I though the same, but sometimes it gaves that md5sum and another

[aur-general] postinstall script and local user directory

[Jorge Barroso]

Hello, I need a little help with a postinstall script, the script should
make automatically a few postinstall steps on the LMD installation, qhat
the script should make it's to detect if a directory called .LMD on the
home directory exists, if it exists, it shows an informative message, if it
doesn't exist it makes it.
All right the problem is: It acts over the root directory, and I want it to
act over the user normal directory (/home/'user')
For you tu understand what I mean, this is the code:

http://pastebin.com/57L2Jt2P <- With that it looks for a directory called
"~", not "home" directory

I als otried with an array, and it was here when it used root like home
directory, and not the local user directory:

http://pastebin.com/TCh94dC9

I want the script to do the same that it makes with the second paste bin,
but not in root, it should be, in my pc for example, on /home/jorge...

Thanks in advance

Thanks Auguste, I'd like to do it all in the postinstall even though, I'll
try a little changes on it and I'll see what can I do and if I see it
doesn't works... I'll keep that on account

Good Idea, I wasn't thought about that ;)

Mmm yes it helps, I know what you mean, adding a line on the own lmd binary
script that checks if .LMD already exists... any time you run lmd an for
any user ;) Not bad :D but... if fear I don't know so sed "command", so I
can't comprehend where are you exactly telling me that I should put that
or... well :S sorry, could you explain it a little more :S

My bigest thanks friend

Oh, ok, yeah I read a bit on the man page and o a webpage, but it's too
large, it has so many functions. Eitherway, I understand what you said now.
Then, on my PKGBUILD, I should modify the package()... in the next way?:

package() {
cd "${srcdir}"

tar xf data.tar.gz
mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/"
cp -r "${srcdir}/./usr/local/bin" "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"
cp -r "${srcdir}/./usr/share" "${pkgdir}/usr/share"

sed -e '325s#then#then\n\t[ ! -d ~/.LMD ] \&\& lmd -reconf#' -i
"${pkgdir}"/usr/bin/lmd

chmod +x "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"/*
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"/*
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/LMD.desktop"
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i
"${pkgdir}/usr/share/doc/linux-manga-downloader/copyright"
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/share/icons/pen.png"
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/share/lmd/langs/ca_ES"

And what about asking to you?  Or a field option on the sittings, like to

want your #Contributor flag to be removed or not

Ok, thanks, but the problem is that I can't set an specific username,
because it has to be  the installer username and trying with $USER it
equally sets root as user... I think (y tried with chown in a patch as well
and this was the result)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59118 this is the package, you
can download or see online the PKGBUILD there. I tried to use chown in this
package, and it sets $USER as root :S

Yes, that's the problem I have, the source is made by a student, so it's
not complete, and I added a piece of source that checks if .LMD exists and
if it doesn't exists it is created, without having to make anything (sed -s
'325s#then#then\n\t[ ! -d ~/.LMD ] \&\& lmd -reconf#' -i
"${pkgdir}"/usr/bin/lmd) But as the program owner after the installation is
by default root, it doesn't works... moreover, the program can't be run as
root, so I tried to change the user, with chown, and after that, as it
doesn't worked, tried with another script on the post_install

*if {
[ ! -d /home/$USER /.LMD ]
   then
lmd -reconf
   else
echo "*\033[1;32m* .LMD already exists* \033[0m*"*

The problem is that $USER is root, so it works, but only on the /root
folder, and it should do that on the local user folder

So, the problem is... $USER shouldn't be 'root', but the local user (in my
case, for example, jorge). If I can do that I think the both two scripts
will work... but I don't know how...

Jaja you're right but I thought all the PKGBUILD around that name (i had to
rewrite it because the former didn't work) and forget to rename the
src.tar.xz package before uploading it.
But... if you like the former one I can do it again with that name, so...
remove iceweasel-libre then XD

Thanks!

[aur-general] Package Uploading Problem

[Jorge Barroso]

Hello again XD I'm trying to upload the language pack for iceweasel, but
when I try (https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgsubmit.php) I get an error which
tells me It is only allowed to use small letters :S the pkbuild is the
following:

http://pastebin.com/bT4fdtPE

It's taken from the parabolalinux official PKGBUILD (
https://projects.parabolagnulinux.org/abslibre.git/tree/libre/iceweasel-i18n
)

Could you tell me why do I get this error?

mmm it works! but, it makes individual packages, depending on the first
language on the line
'for lang in af ak ar as ast be bg bn-BD bn-IN br bs ca cs csb cy da de el

I've erased iceweasel in the line 11 because it forced me to have iceweasel
installed and my pc nowadays can't install iceweasel (power... it fails
compiling)
Anyway, after that I added pkgver pkgrel and arch after pkgname (makepkg
--source asked me for them) and now it makes the src.tar.gz of the last
language, and creates a folder with independent PKGBUILD's for any
language... I think I'll use that to make makepkg --source in any directory
individually now ;) thanks :D

Re: [aur-general] Package Uploading Problem

sorry, just a correction, the change that made makepkg --source to

Sorry for remailing... I think the problem it's on the function ((i++))
After doing the EOF for the first, it returns to the PKGBUILD directory,
then it fails with a "User defined exit 1" message

[aur-general] Some packages removal request

[Jorge Barroso]

Hello, I've listed some packages that I think should be removed from the

advcp: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45056 The package was
orphaned, I adopted it, but the proyect is stopped since about 2 years ago.
It works with coreutils 8.4 (actual is 8.17) and pv already exists in
community with the same function.

iceweasel-il18n-af: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=61533 It
already exists with the name iceweasel-i18n-af, like all the other language
packages of iceweasel.

0ad-ppa-wfg alpha_5_9530-1:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42000It's orphaned since 24
Jul 2011 and outdated since 11 Jul 2011. Also,
there's an svn version up to date.

Hi, I've noticed that there are some packages on the aur that have been 
renamed following the kde package guidelines, but haven't been merged or 
removed, this packages are kdeservicemenu-image2pdf[1] kdeservicemenu-
newlibreofficedoc[2] and kdeservicemenu-sendwithkmail[3].
I think we should better merge them rather than remove them, because of votes 
and comments.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdeservicemenu-image2pdf/ [1]
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdeservicemenu-newlibreofficedoc/ [2]
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdeservicemenu-sendwithkmail/ [3]

Thanks! :-)

Jaja, sorry, I have recently started to use kmail as email desktop client, and 
I got two email accounts. The hotmail one it's because of I have some old 
accounts with my hotmail account registered, and it also helps me to avoid 
span on my gmail account, which is the official one which I registered here :P
I've read the wiki page from Rudy Matela, and I think I have all the basic 
things I should have...
Know basic shel scripting...
18 packages on the aur
Basic community involvement
I really know google-fu (if it is what I think it is...)
and I got a general idea on the kind of packages I would like to mantain

If someone could tell me their opinion, it would be great, because I'd like to 
improve what I need to improve

Thanks you both guys, I'll try doing those extra jobs, since yesterday I'm 
involved with bug tracker, I'll see the packaging standards, though I think I 
follow them, who knows...? I'll be a time on it, and then I would like to have 
a sponsor... would anybody do it please? :)

Thanks

PD: Of course I'm open to new conuncils

[aur-general] gdc-git

[Jorge Barroso]

Hi, I'm updating the gdc-bin package, but nowadays it is turned a git package, 
so I'm compiling from source (and it will be named gdc-git).

I have a problem while compiling the source (I use makepkg once to check the 
package) while i'm doing "make" to gcc according with the general installation 
guide on the project's webpage. I don't know which is exactly the problem, but 
those are the PKGBUILD[1] and what happens[2] after doing the source 
downloads.

[1] http://pastebin.com/cWe4dDtv
[2] http://pastebin.com/RndQVYpH

I've thought it could be because of the line:

make -j2 2>&1 | tee build.log ||return 1 

Because in my specific case it should be -j3, but I don't think it means too 
much because "by defect" configuration of makepkg.conf was -j2 for a long time 
even there was a 64 bits version.

Does anybody knows what happens? Thanks in advance

Ok I agree :) i tried but I couldn't. I thought it needed a patch on the
sqlite*.cpp file, which is the one who fails but I don't know so much of C++
and sqlite... so I had to disown it again

Wow! Good, I'm a little bussy today making some patches to a manga program of

although the package is deleted you can upload it again XD

have you tried with qt3? qt doesn't allows you to mix between "major" releases
(nowadays, software which need qt4 won't compile if you try to compile it with
qt5, at least, not all of them)

No matter, a simple "ls" on bin directory can easily show qmake-qt4 instead
qmake4, and checking a package before submit it should show that qmake4
doesn't compile, so it is not such a big problem
