Hello, IMHO packages should not create logfiles at all. Try to patch out the according lines in the Makefile. If the directory connot be created at first runtime, create and remove the directory using an installfile. Regards Stefan
[aur-general] Package rename
hi, Could someone rename gstreamer0.10-pitfdll-cvs in gstreamer0.10-pitfdll because this package is no longer in extra so there is no problems if it's renamed. However gstreamer0.10-pitfdll-cvs is not a cvs package so the name is not correct. Thank you in advance.
[aur-general] Leaving Arch
This is to a) inform the TUs that I've switched distros and won't be able to maintain my packages in the AUR anymore. Feel free to orphan all 358 of them. b) say Thank you! to everybody who notified me of outdated packages, sent suggestions and/or patches or helped otherwise. c) give reasons for leaving: My mind is on things other than bleeding-edge and system-tinkering. Over time I also became dissatisfied with the official way of handling source packages. IMO Arch could be great at both source and binary, but the source part doesn't get enough love. Why not add source support for pacman? Oh, and why not compress packages with LZMA? d) wish every Arch user all the best and lots of fun with his/her/its distro of choice! Greetings, Christoph Zeiler aka rabyte aka Moonborn

Why not add source support for pacman? Mostly because pacman is for the binary packages and abs is for the source. But even pacman can build every package if you want. Oh, and why not compress packages with LZMA? I think on arch-general was a discussion about that just last month. No really solution in the discussion though. Thomas

I'll see what I can do about having some of the Arch-Games team take some of your packages.
Re: [aur-general] Leaving Arch
Christoph could you tell us to which distro you switched to? Thanks.
Re: [aur-general] Leaving Arch
Sad to hear you are leaving. But everybody has a freedom of choice. Would be interesting to know which distro you are going to use after Arch :) Thanks for nice wishes. Wish you the same!

[aur-general] orphanage request libunique

Hello Fred, Could you please take into account the suggestions given by other users in the comments on the page for your package unique? If you cannot do that, I'd ask you to orphan it for another person to take over its maintenance. Thanks.
