Re: [aur-general] AUR package updating enhancements

Following what I said before, making steps harder isn't necessarily going to make people walk through them more carefully. I don't agree that an on-line code editor would make people do more mistakes, because good maintainers would continue to test the PKGBUILD before making the changes on the on-line editor, or just simply not using it. An editor would just save the pain to archive and upload (not testing them) simple changes to the PKGBUILD, that make probably the biggest part of AUR packages updates. I don't understand why the developers should write, test and deploy new code in the website to perform a task that can already be done with CLI tools. Which is exactly the pain to archive and upload? makepkg--source $AUR_HELPER *.src.tar.gz isn't much of pain to me :) Another issue that comes to my mind: how would you update the md5sums with the online editor?

Re: [aur-general] AUR webpage
At first I thought that this idea was nice, but then I've changed my mind: for example, even for the most simple version bump you'd need to update the md5sums array, so you'd have to run makepkg -g anyway; moreover, the PKGBUILD would be presented in a text field without most of the features of a real editor. I just can't see what would be the added value of this feature :)

At the package's page it says there's no maintainer. Is there a chance finding a new maintainer for it? There's a new version of this package (0.0.5) and I would like to see it updated in Arch, too. The package structure hasn't changed, so it might be a pure version bump. Hi Dominik, As this is an AUR package, I am forwarding this message on to the aur-general mailing list to see if one of the TUs or another member of the community would be interested in maintaining it. Cheers, Aaron Adopted and updated. Cheers, Ju

Also, I'd strongly suggest that the PKGBUILDs are re-written from scratch (based on /usr/share/pacman/PKGBUILD.proto) and the dependency on 'man' is dropped (which is just a reader application and doesn't affect the installation/existence of man pages in any way). Cheers. :) I already re-wrote them from scratch :P Going to update them now ;)
