Hi speps,
I judged that the typical person using this software would prefer to use
the vcs version. I don't mind if the stable packages are not deleted
but don't want to confuse people and want to make it easy for them to
install the currently maintained -bzr versions.

I'll stick to the vcs versions just because I don't have time to
maintain two sets. If someone does adopt the stable ones then we can
collaborate.
There is a difficulty with keeping the stable versions though; How do I
make it easy for users to build and install the set of -bzr packages,
rather than a mixture of -bzr and stable ones?
There are two issues.
1) the groups() variable is not used:
I envisioned being able to make use of the groups() variable by having
groups=('fenics-bzr') in all the -bzr PKGBUILDs and doing something
similar to:
$ pacman -S fenics-bzr
or, for stable versions:
$ pacman -S fenics
which works for packages controlled by pacman (and this is how I use it,
via local repos) but not for the AUR because the groups() thing isn't
accessible to AUR clients [fn:1].
2) the AUR client I use (cower) doesn't recognise dependencies are
satisfied on with the same action
The way things are now, in (e.g) ffc-bzr PKGBUILD there is:
depends=(... 'ufl' ...)
and in ufl-bzr :
provides=('ufl')
conflicts=('ufl')
so that if the user wants the stable versions of most of the fenics
packages but the vcs version of ufl, then they can install it and still
satisfy the dependencies.
However if I try:
$ cower -dd fiat-bzr ufc-bzr ufl-bzr ffc-bzr
it will download the stable PKGBUILDs for ufc and ufl to satisfy the
dependency in ffc-bzr, but I wanted the the -bzr versions. I have
raised on Issue on cower's github [fn:2].
I am new to this list and maybe you have already discussed making
groups() accessible to AUR clients. Perhaps an alternative AUR client
is better at calculating dependencies. Am I doing it wrong?

[aur-general] postinstall script and local user directory
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

Since your first post, I was not comfortable having a install script
looking for a normal user's home folder, because you can always find
yourself in the situation that a user might be added after LMD is
installed. (not being harsh, just not a good idea, IMO)
So, I came up with the idea of applying a patch in the 'ldm' script.
With this patch, 'lmd' would verify if the user have '~/.LMD'
everytime, right before starting the gtkdialog. See my diff:
--- src/usr/local/bin/lmd 2011-07-03 17:19:24.0 -0300
+++ pkg/usr/bin/lmd 2012-05-21 22:07:06.587084106 -0300
@@ -323,6 +323,7 @@
if [ -z $1 ];
then
+ [ ! -d ~/.LMD ] && lmd -reconf
gtkdialog --program=MAIN_DIALOG
fi
echo $1
I added the following line the PKGBUILD, after installing lmd to '$pkgdir':
sed -e '325s#then#then\n\t[ ! -d ~/.LMD ] \&\& lmd -reconf#' -i
"${pkgdir}"/usr/bin/lmd
which just replace in line 325 the "then", adding one more line with
the command command you provided.
Hope it helps.

[aur-general] Delete gitolite-g3-git
Please delete gitolite-g3-git [1]. I am the maintainer, and this was a temporary package until the upstream g3 branch became the master branch. That has since happened, so this package may be deleted. The gitolite-git package now tracks the g3 code base. Thank you.
