Yep, I see it now that I've sync'd. It's not something that I'd periodically check. I'm sure it would have jumped out at me the next time I did an update via aur helper. Then again my question was more about getting notice (and info), than about noticing. ;) > If a package that used to be provided by the repos is now listed as a > foreign package by pacman or an AUR package by an AUR helper, then this > indicates the package was dropped. :) > > It was also discussed on arch-dev-public (which anyone can subscribe to > for read-only access, or simply look at the public archives) as part of > our end-of-year repository cleanup.

Where or how else > should I have been paying attention? We don't usually publish news advisories when packages are dropped from the repos. It is easy to tell, however, by listing installed packages which are not from the repos: `pacman -Qm`. Some AUR helpers can also list packages that were installed from the AUR. If a package that used to be provided by the repos is now listed as a foreign package by pacman or an AUR package by an AUR helper, then this indicates the package was dropped. :) It was also discussed on arch-dev-public (which anyone can subscribe to for read-only access, or simply look at the public archives) as part of our end-of-year repository cleanup. -- Eli Schwartz signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Unfortunately, both of those options only act as fronend clients, and still need a DVR backend like mythtv-backend or tvheadend to connect to. =-Jameson

[arch-general] mythtv issues with HDTV and MPG ac3 audio
Hi, Since upgrading to 0.26 series, i have serious issues with HD TV and DVB-S mpg conversion. I'm using latest git version of 0.26 from 121209. - HDTV looses audio complete if using high profile for conversion. - DVB-S mpg's are not convertable anymore with cutlists. The mpg's are not working to convert until I remove the ac3 audio stream manually with ffmpeg. With HDTV I don't get a working cutted recording. Do others observe such issues too? Thanks. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tp...@archlinux.org signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
