[aur-general] qtm
Does anyone know if the pkg qtm is maintained anymore, i have a PKGBUILD ready with the new version if it isn't anymore
Re: [aur-general] qtm
Hello! It seems not, because out of date, and the last action was in january, this year! Please contact with maintainer. If he doesn't reply for you, please to ask TUs to orphan it.

Re: [aur-general] PKGBUILD for ttf-tahoma is up for grabs
Hi, When I tested the PKGBUILD + .install, this is what I got: ==> Validating source files with md5sums... wd97vwr32.exe ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! % file wd97vwr32.exe wd97vwr32.exe: ASCII HTML document text, with very long lines Something is wrong. Cheers, Alexander
Re: [aur-general] PKGBUILD for ttf-tahoma is up for grabs
Hi, I think http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/corefonts/wd97vwr32.exe?use_mirror=heanetwould be a better link? 2009/7/15 Alexander Rødseth > Hi, > > When I tested the PKGBUILD + .install, this is what I got: > > ==> Validating source files with md5sums... >wd97vwr32.exe ...

[aur-general] CVS freeze and move to SVN/official tools
Hey guys, I'd like to put a freeze on community CVS later today. Sadly, CVS doesn't respect files set to RO, so there's not too much I can do server-side. I'm going to do the SVN conversion in approx 8 hours or so, maybe sooner, if I get some time while at work. In the meantime, this document should explain the usage of the offical tools and svn: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:HOWTO_Be_A_Packager Let me know if there are any questions. Sorry for the long delay on this one. Cheers, Aaron

How much longer do you guys need to kick all the rebuilds out? Honestly though, this should take a few minutes to do the conversion (and another hour or so of waiting for all the processing)

I imagine we could throw an install of the main site on the aur server for community packages. I hadn't thought that far ahead though. I was under the impression that community was going to remain on the AUR web page.

Although the downtime is short as you said, there is always the possibility of some complications. The cvs to svn switch also involve a learning curve for non-dev TU so it might slow down the rebuild. It will also give you more time to figure out how to deal with the website issue.

The problem with that is my time. I have time tonight, so I wanted to get it out of the way. If I wait, it might end up being weeks before I can get a block of time to do this again. Does anyone have an idea of the rebuilds that are left for community? How many and how long it will take? If I could get an estimate, maybe I could plan accordingly

Please read this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:HOWTO_Be_A_Packager I tested with some random package and am able to commit.

Tested dbscripts (you'll see a 'foobar' package in community x86_64 -
I added then removed it from the DB)
When running the dbscripts, you'll need to use /arch/db-community{,64}
- or manually /arch/db-update community {i686,x86_64} - ignore the
scripts for extra/core/etc
Additionally, I created a skeleton repo called "community-testing" to
be used as a testing repo. It's not linked up to gerolde, so it does
nothing for the time being, but you should be able to use it if you
want (archrelease community-testing-$ARCH; /arch/db-update
community-testing $ARCH)

Great. Now we just need to get ABS working again. This should just be
a matter of altering the update-abs.sh script to use svn2abs for
community and pointing it at the right place...
@Aaron: can you handle that given you know where these things are located?

Yeah. Do we want it running on sigurd or gerolde? I'm not sure where
abs gets the files from these days - is it the .abs.tar.gz tarballs?

You will all need to "mkdir -p ~/staging/community/" on sigurd.
A devtools release is needed, so communitypkg works the same as the
rest. If someone would like to submit a patch to remove all the
community specific stuff, and vary the hostname based on repo
(archlinux.org / aur.archlinux.org), that'd be awesome. Or maybe Dan
did this already?
For now you can just scp the package to
aur.archlinux.org:staging/community and manually commit the files to
svn. You will also need to run "archrelease community-i686" or
"archrelease community-x86_64" before the dbscripts will allow you to
add a new package.
Tomorrow I will update devtools, and setup cleanup cron jobs to be run
on that machine. I'll also sync svn to gerolde for the repo browser,
if you guys want.
Loui, do you need to do anything with the AUR now?
Again: Please do not use CVS anymore. It will do nothing. I have
killed the tupkg daemons so using CVS won't work anymore.
Tested dbscripts (you'll see a 'foobar' package in community x86_64 -
I added then removed it from the DB)
When running the dbscripts, you'll need to use /arch/db-community{,64}
- or manually /arch/db-update community {i686,x86_64} - ignore the
scripts for extra/core/etc
Additionally, I created a skeleton repo called "community-testing" to
be used as a testing repo. It's not linked up to gerolde, so it does
nothing for the time being, but you should be able to use it if you
want (archrelease community-testing-$ARCH; /arch/db-update
community-testing $ARCH)
Great. Now we just need to get ABS working again. This should just be a
matter of altering the update-abs.sh script to use svn2abs for community and
pointing it at the right place...
@Aaron: can you handle that given you know where these things are located?
Yeah. Do we want it running on sigurd or gerolde? I'm not sure where
abs gets the files from these days - is it the .abs.tar.gz tarballs?
abs gets the files from the /srv/abs/rsync directory by default. The
tarballs are just a backup method to retrieve the ABS files from the
mirrors when rsync is blocked.
So the question is, do we run svn2abs on gerolde which requires a
complete checkout of the SVN directory, or do we run it on sigurd and
rsync the changes to gerolde to then be rsynced to the masses. The
first option is easiest to implement, but will have more overhead by not
doing the required SVN checkout locally. I'm not sure how large that
overhead is.
