[aur-general] Request to merge vim-vimwiki-hg into vim-vimwiki-git

[Andreas Wagner]

Hello,

The vimwiki project has switched to git:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/vimwiki/X1itooceNtc

..So I created the package vim-vimwiki-git. Could someone merge

vim-vimwiki-hg https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vim-vimwiki-hg/

into

vim-vimwiki-git https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vim-vimwiki-git/ ?

Thanks,

Andreas Wagner

[aur-general] Delete suckless *-hg packages (suckless.org has moved to git)

[Andreas Wagner]

Hello,

I have uploaded dmenu-git and and dmc-git to replace dmenu-hg and dmc-hg
because suckless.org has moved to git.

Could someone here delete the following packages:

dmenu-hg

dmc-hg

Eventually, we should move the rest of the packages over too.

Thanks,

Andreas

Re: [aur-general] Deletion request: a few random packages

[Andreas Wagner]

I just noticed the librest-git repository has been moved to github.

Maybe we shouldn't be so trigger-happy with the delete button. Being
orphaned or having a change in the download url is not enough reason
to delete a package. Packages that don't build may need to be updated
or patched.

[aur-general] Orphan request for xd

[Andreas Wagner]

Hi, I have posted a working PKGBUILD in the comments on August 5th and
the maintainer has still not updated it. I would like to adopt it.

[aur-general] Use soundfontcombi in place of current sfc and use sfc for another piece of software?

[Andreas Wagner]

Hello,

The package sfc ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11363 )
should be used by simple flashcards: http://0au.de/apps/sfc/

Current users of sfc should be using the more canonically named
package soundfontcombi (
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45868 ) in place of the sfc
package.

Would it be best to just add a notice that the software of the package
is changing in a new package that I upload? The version numbers are
different though. I'm not sure of the best way to resolve this
situation.

Thanks,

Andreas Wagner

[aur-general] please remove xdotool-svn

[Andreas Wagner]

Hello, xdotool has moved from svn to git. The package xdotool-svn no
longer works. Can someone remove it?

[aur-general] delete incorrectly named package

[Andreas Wagner]

I came across a disowned package(
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23013 ). The former
contributor just put svn in the pkver field. It should be named
n2n-svn. I adopted it however there is no non-vcs source release so I
can't convert into a stable package. I set the new package (
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41506 ) to replace n2n
svn-2.

I think this misnamed package should be deleted.

Thanks,
Andreas Wagner
