[aur-general] Please delete package aurget-git

2009-11-26 Thread Jordy van Wolferen
Hey all,

I would like to request the removal of the package aurget-git:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25551

I used some code from brisbin33 scripts and he now wrote a complete AUR
frontend and wants to use the name aurget.
Aurget-git isn't the dev package of aurget, so to don't confuse people I
changed the name to aurget-jordz (non-git).

Best Regards,
jordz

Re: [aur-general] Application as a Trusted User

Hello,

I've been playing for a while with the thought to apply as a Trusted
User, but I never really had the courage to do so, well now I try it.

About my person:
I'm a 1990 born student from the south of Germany, I study Computer
Science(first semester) and use Arch as my main system now since two
years and 4 days. I'm mainly active in the german part of the community
as the international forums and IRC are too lively for me to actively
participate a lot, so I mostly only read the topics, but don't post
in the threads. However I read nearly every mail at the mailing lists
(except for the ones concerning problems of Users with software I
haven't used in years e.g. KDE), but as my opinion was often already
stated I don't feel that I have to repeat what's already been said, so
I mail rarely to the lists too.

About my skills:
I'm programming in C since a few years, though I mostly review code in
order to learn more, I'm also capable of the basics with python 2.5,
several BASIC dialects, C++, Objective C, Java and of course shell
scripting. Whereas the focus for the next years lies upon C and Java as
they're both needed by my study.

About my packages:
I maintain 10 packages in AUR[1], whereby I also participate in the
development of the i3 window manager to whom's project family 6 of
these packages belong(3 projects, each as stable and git package), the
other four are the git package of the newsbeuter feedreader and the
cococpp package which is a build dependency for the previously named,
structorizer which is a Java program to design structograms (or Nassi-
Schneiderman diagrams) and a mecurial package for objfw which is a
portable framework for the Objective C language, not one of them was
adopted. If you want to see their history, I also keep them in a git
repository at github.com[2].

About my Application:
I asked Stefan Husmann if he would like to sponsor me and he agreed to
do so. I have two Arch systems, my laptop running an i686 installation
and my desktop machine running a x86_64 installation, both run without
the testing repository. As I have to use Java and corresponding util-
ities for my study I'd take care of orphanages of the Java development
segment, but also orphans in the topics I'm mainly interested in(window
managers, development and networks). And as I check my mail whenever
it's possible I'd also help with the request of users regarding the
administration of the AUR.

If you want to search for me, my nick at Arch related sites is Atsutane.

Regards
Thorsten

[aur-general] Deletion request

2009-11-26 Thread Laszlo Papp
Hello TUs,

kermit[1] seems to be a duplicate of ckermit[2].
It installs the same version of kermit project like ckermit.
The Maintainer of kermit didn't react for the comments which were
taken nearly 3 years ago.
I've checked it won't hurt any other package on AUR, because this
package is not the dependency of other package.
I've checked which name is better to be in AUR, but after a small
researching ckermit is better according to the official site/project,
and other distribution (like Ubuntu, Gentoo) use ckermit too instead
of kermit.

Hello Laszlo,
Kermit is now gone.  Yes, the canonical name is C-Kermit.  Kermit is
the name of a protocol, rather than a program.

Thanks,

[aur-general] Orphaning request

2009-11-26 Thread Raphael Scholer
Hello TUs,
could you please orphan vim-snipmate, since it needs an update to work
with current vim versions. I posted a comment regarding this problem,
nearly two months ago in aur, but the maintainer didn't reply/or update
the PKGBUILD. I tried today to reach him via e-mail, but the given
adress in his aur profile doesn't seem to be active anymore.

Regards,
Raphael Scholer
