[aur-general] gdc-git
Hi, I'm updating the gdc-bin package, but nowadays it is turned a git package, so I'm compiling from source (and it will be named gdc-git). I have a problem while compiling the source (I use makepkg once to check the package) while i'm doing make to gcc according with the general installation guide on the project's webpage. I don't know which is exactly the problem, but those are the PKGBUILD[1] and what happens[2] after doing the source downloads. [1] http://pastebin.com/cWe4dDtv [2] http://pastebin.com/RndQVYpH I've thought it could be because of the line: make -j2 21 | tee build.log ||return 1 Because in my specific case it should be -j3, but I don't think it means too much because by defect configuration of makepkg.conf was -j2 for a long time even there was a 64 bits version. Does anybody knows what happens? Thanks in advance signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

[aur-general] How to see the interest in a package (other than votes)?
Hello, is it possible to see the number of downloads of packages from AUR, so that it can be detected, how much interest in a package exists? Say, there are some users who do not have a AUR-login, and just would install the packages that are there... which are possibly outdated, but would nevertheless be interested in installing newer package, if possible. If the download number is high enough, even if there are not much votes (because some people may only install stuff but are not interested in package maintaining and so on), then at least interest of a package might be detected this way. I'm asking, because I think I can adopt some more packages, but would of course only pick those that I find interesting. They might be interesting (topic), even if I wil not use them by myself. So, from that standpoint, I would then select by my own interest and that of other people. For packages that I use by myself, of course my interest is clear, and I would pick such packages. But say there are 100 orphaned packages and 20 of them look interesting, but I would not use them by myself, then I would adopt those, who are wanted by many people. (And any package that I want to install myself.) I hope I could make ckear, why I'm asking. Say, there are 5 interesting packages, but 3 of them will not be used, because that stuff is not used any more (maybe because better projects are to prefer), then three don't need support I think. So, the tarball download numbers do matter in this respect. Is it possible to add them to the AUR-pages of a project? Ciao, Oliver

So, the tarball download numbers do matter in this respect. I disagree. Downloading a tarball doesn't mean you intend to build, install, and use it. Is it possible to add them to the AUR-pages of a project? And display this how? A flat download count would be of little interest or value. Would it be reset every time there's a new PKGBUILD uploaded? Maybe only for pkgver changes? Would that include pkgrel bumps too? What about historical data? Trending? Unique by IP? Unique by IP within a given date range? If you want to make download count a useful metric, you have to do a lot more than display a raw counter. As you propose it, it's no better (and probably worse) than a vote count.

Yes. Why I was looking for poularity? Because I thought, it *might* be an indicator (even a weak one) about some kind of quality. Some libraries or tools might not be used anymore, because there are newer or faster or better libs for example. Maybe it would be better, asking people about quality of a software, instead of just looking at the numbers... hmhhh. Maybe the numbers are really to weak to decide this. But somehow I think, if something is used often, there might be a bigger number of users who can support other people. Hence more prgress, and (hopefully) rising quality. Often people say: a project that was not updates since years is a dead project. People turn away. Isn't this most often (of course not always, not hgenerally) some kind of indicator to see some kind of quality behind these decisions?

Re: [aur-general] AUR Maintenance

It is a 46MB text file of SQL commands; the kind you would get by running mysqldump. It only has 462 lines, but some of them are very long. The important lines are 97-117 that specify the PackageComments table: CREATE TABLE `PackageComments` ( `ID` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `PackageID` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', `UsersID` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', `Comments` text NOT NULL, `CommentTS` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', `DelUsersID` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', PRIMARY KEY (`ID`), KEY `UsersID` (`UsersID`), KEY `PackageID` (`PackageID`), KEY `DelUsersID` (`DelUsersID`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=154508 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; /*!40101 SET character_set_client = @saved_cs_client */; -- -- Dumping data for table `PackageComments` -- LOCK TABLES `PackageComments` WRITE; /*!4 ALTER TABLE `PackageComments` DISABLE KEYS */; ID is a number identifying the comment, PackageID is the package to which it belongs, UsersID is the one who posted it, Comments is the actual text of it, CommentTS is the timestamp of when it was posted, DelUsersID is equal to the ID of the user who deleted the comment and 0 if it has not been deleted. The next important lines are 118-146 which state the actual comment data. An example of it is: INSERT INTO `PackageComments` VALUES (17,46,68,'ruby bindings for fastcgi',1113164127,68),(28,69,65,'A countdown timer applet for the GNOME panel.',1113178883,0); Except that line there is 161 characters and contains two comments (one comment deleted by its poster about Ruby and one non-deleted comment about GNOME). The line in the real file is a million characters and contains ~20k comments. And there are 28 such lines. Reading this would be like reading War And Peace 10 times but it would teach you a lot about the history of the AUR. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
[aur-general] Disown/Delete/Merge Requests
**DISOWN** I sent feanor an email about his packages rage-svn and eclair-svn. This was his response: you're right, I'm no longer maintaining those PKGBUILDs. Feel free to remove or modify them all, I'm out of time unfortunately. I'll see if in few hours I can login and mark them as orphans. He apparently wasn't able to log in, so I'm requesting this one be disowned: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rage-svn/ **DELETE** Dead, source gone: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qmrtg/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/netkit-ntalk/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qnokiacommander/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/grunka/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/workspace-name/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wmmp/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-audio-cd-deb/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tvmovie2vdr/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/paldump/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mugshot/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/black-white-icon-theme/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/neelix/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dmerge/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pepper/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xpws/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-gvgen/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdeicons-breathless/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kmd5/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/delsafe/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/soma/ Related to/depend on soma https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/somax/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/somaplayer/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ikarus/ Related to/depend on ikarus https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ikarus-gtk/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ikarus-srfi-bzr/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ikarus-tiny-talk/ Switched away from cvs a long time ago, no current package to merge to: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ekg-cvs/ Dead upstream, dep packages no longer exist.
