[aur-general] Leaving ArchLinux
I'm sorry to say that I've just had to move away from Arch Linux on my main PC; I've had a great time and I'm going to miss most of it, but I just needed a debian environment sometimes, and I was spending more and more time in debian chroots. I have 25 `packages on AUR`_, none of which has many votes, but I don't want to leave them to rot, so this is my plan. .. _`packages on AUR`: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?K=valhalla&SeB=m First of all, if anybody is interested in one of my packages let me know and I'll orphan it so that they can take them over. For the rest, I am keeping the old Arch partition around and chrooting into it when they need mainteinance; after a few months if I find out that I'm not giving them as much love as they need I'll start orphaning them, but I'll keep subscribed to the comments and try to keep them up to date until they are adopted. I hope that this way I'll be able to move away without leaving stuff to bitrot in AUR. Thanks everybody, -- Elena ``of Valhalla'' signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Nevermind, i've now seen that the package in extra is actually sqlite3. Therefore this package should be deleted.

Mmm yes it helps, I know what you mean, adding a line on the own lmd binary
script that checks if .LMD already exists... any time you run lmd an for
any user ;) Not bad :D but... if fear I don't know so sed "command", so I
can't comprehend where are you exactly telling me that I should put that
or... well :S sorry, could you explain it a little more :S

If you're not comfortable with sed, you can always create a patch
using 'diff -u foo1 bar2 > foo-bar.patch' and add to source=() ... But
since we are here:
My sed command executes an expression in an input text. The input text
is from the file 'lmd'. I also added the flag '-i' so the output of
this command will not go to stdout, but directly to the input file.
So, it will not just read the file, but alter/write too.
The expression structure is basically 'A#B#C#', where #s are
delimiters; A is a specific line number that sed will look and
replace; B is the regexp to look (and to be replaced) in that line in
A; and C is the replacement regexp that I want to replace B. Please
note that '\n' is a newline character and '\t' is a tab character.
So, as I mentioned before, I replaced the string 'then' in line 325
with the new line/command you provided.
'sed' can do much more than that. Man page and google can help a lot.
Cheers,
Rafael Ferreira

Oh, ok, yeah I read a bit on the man page and o a webpage, but it's too
large, it has so many functions. Eitherway, I understand what you said now.
Then, on my PKGBUILD, I should modify the package()... in the next way?:
package() {
cd "${srcdir}"
tar xf data.tar.gz
mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/"
cp -r "${srcdir}/./usr/local/bin" "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"
cp -r "${srcdir}/./usr/share" "${pkgdir}/usr/share"
sed -e '325s#then#then\n\t[ ! -d ~/.LMD ] \&\& lmd -reconf#' -i
"${pkgdir}"/usr/bin/lmd
chmod +x "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"/*
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"/*
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/LMD.desktop"
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i
"${pkgdir}/usr/share/doc/linux-manga-downloader/copyright"
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/share/icons/pen.png"
sed 's|usr/local|usr|' -i "${pkgdir}/usr/share/lmd/langs/ca_ES"

Looks good. Try to build the package and then verify if
pkg/usr/bin/lmd has the command added with sed. Case yes, then you're
good to go.

However, I do not believe that treating standard X, that system Y is applicable to, as part of Y's documentation package is elegant; instead, Y's documentation should merely reference X (as hier(7) does in the "CONFORMING TO" section). The reasoning is that system Z might also be applicable to X (inelegant, since there would exist a redundant copy of X), and more importantly, X is self-contained. That would mean that X should exist separately as a package, instead of being a component of Y-docs and Z-docs. I do not believe that this packaging infrastructure (pacman, official and unofficial repos, AUR) is well suited for offline content not pertaining to specific software, since the functionality is specifically targetted towards software packages. If my reasoning is sound, then a FHS package is outside the scope of this infrastructure. -Ruslan -- Ruslan Nabioullin rnabioul...@gmail.com signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
