Hi Minze,

Thanks for doing the testing, I too did some tests on my server over a sample 
of 373 representative files (flac, m4a, mp3). HDD as well but I only had 15MB/s 
of disk I/O so it's definitely CPU bound. Here are the results:

gstreamer -> roughly 4s per track
bs1770gain -> roughly 3s per track

bs1770gain is definitely faster, but right now I'm using fb2k over the network 
where it takes 0.4s per track. Mind you, my desktop has a much more powerful 
CPU, and fb2k actually uses several threads which afaict beets does not.

I'm quite sure I can divide the time it takes on my server by 4 using threads 
as well which would make beets a viable alternative, I'll look into it when I'm 
more familiar with ayncio. Also found out about the volumedetect filter of 
ffmpeg, but I'd need to document myself more about replaygain and its variants 
to make good use of the output.

Hi Bruno,

Nice to see a fellow beets lover apply! Your PKGBUILDs look nice and tidy, 
you'll most likely fit right in :)

You piqued my interest with bs1770gain, any idea how it fares speed-wise 
against the default gstreamer backend? I kept using wine + foobar2000 to 
compute my replaygain values even after transitioning to beets because it's 
infinitely faster than using gstreamer.

If the [community] package was much larger, I'd keep the AUR package. But
saving a few KB of bandwidth and half an MB or so of storage doesn't really
justify the existence of 2 packages.

Exactly, read a couple emails back. Also why would you want to decompress
the source tarball in the package function? The source for your particular
arch, and only that one, is already decompressed by bsdtar, no need for
that extra step. See [1] for instance.

 Hi list

 My name is Jerome Leclanche and this is my application for becoming an
 Arch Linux TU. Both Balló György and Sven-Hendrik Haase have
 encouraged me to apply, and Sven-Hendrik has agreed to sponsor me for
 the occasion.

 I am a French Python developer living in Stockholm. I work on FOSS
 both for my full-time job and in my free time, with my focus being on
 the LXQt project of which I am one of the lead developers
 (http://lxqt.org/). All my contributions are available on Github:
 https://github.com/jleclanche

 My main goal is of course to bring LXQt to [community]. I emailed
 Antonio Rojas about that a while back as he was also interested in
 this.

 I'm on my third year with Arch Linux and absolutely love the distro;
 been hanging around IRC and the community as jleclanche. This is my
 package list:

 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?SeB=mK=jleclanche

 I have started the release process to get LXQt 0.9 out some time in
 January. I would really like to see it become available on Arch Linux
 at the same time =)

 Other than LXQt, I also maintain ruby-sass and its dependencies, which
 I would also like to move to [community] - although it is something
 I'd like to bring up with Anatol Pomozov first as he maintains a large
 array of Ruby packages himself already.
 I also saw that libfm and libfm-extra are currently orphaned there and
 since they are LXDE projects, I will happily pick them up.

 If any of you are going to FOSDEM, I will also be able to meet you
 there - I'd love to get to know the Arch community in person as well.

 Thanks for the great distribution and happy 2015 to everyone. I've
 kept this as terse as possible but I'll be happy to answer any
 questions.

 J. Leclanche

 I'm at my parents and don't have my gpg key with me so I can't sign this
 mail so for now you'll have to believe my identity. I do indeed sponsor
 Jerome. Let the discussion begin.

 Sven

 Looks like voting is over! Please cast your vote here:
 https://aur.archlinux.org/tu/?id=79

 Sven


 Alright so now it looks like it's actually over. With 28 yes and 2 no
 votes, I'm glad to be able to welcome Jerome Leclanche to the team!
 Congratulations!

 Jerome, I changed your account access level.

And I just realized you might want to use it outside of RockboxUtility and
create your own voice files by external means. In any case, your deps and
makedeps are wrong, the provides line is useless, you're installing ghost
files (the rbspeex{enc,dec} are placed one directory above) and you need to
create bin beforehand or add -D to install. Anyway, I submitted a split

 Hi everyone

 My name's Fabio Castelli (aka Muflone) from Italy and I wish to 
apply to

 become a TU for ArchLinux to maintain some packages in the community
 repository. My TU sponsor is György Balló.

 I actually work as a software developer in a local private company 
and I

 use GNU/Linux since the 1998, having started with Slackware 2.0.
 Many years have passed through Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu and finally
 ArchLinux that actually I use daily at home and at my job place 
since a
 couple of years. Debian is still often used for software packaging, 
to
 deploy services in my network and for less experienced colleagues 
that

 needs some GNU/Linux environment in my job place.

 My experience in development is long term, starting in '80s with 
C=64

 Basic, actually I work daily in Python (under Windows, GNU/Linux and
 i5/OS, both desktop, server and web platforms), Delphi and VB (under
 Windows), RPG/400 and CL (under i5/OS) and many other things which 
I use

 less often, like C or J2EE.

 My open source contributions are a really long list but let's try 
to not

 be boring:

 - maintainer for over 160 packages in the AUR, most of them updated 
often:

 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?SeB=mK=Muflone

 ArchLinux is actually my favorite GNU/Linux distributions and I 
think I

 could do a lot of work in enhancing this great distribution.
 What I love about ArchLinux is the perfect control it gives to me 
and it

 needs from me.

 Every time I need some software, I package it and then I publish it
 under AUR.
 I try to apply an old Microsoft rule: Never ever write the same 
thing
 twice, so if the software resulted useful to me then it could be 
useful

 for other users and AUR is a perfect place where to find stuff.

 There are a lot of packages that I wish to move in the community
 repository: hfsprogs, kompozer, sweethome3d, gmtp, arista,
 spyder/spyder3, sbackup, gwakeonlan, gespeaker, remmina-plugin-*,
 python-ptrace.

 There are also packages maintained from other users that I wish to 
see

 in community repository: dex2jar, dmg2img, firefox-theme-adwaita and
 thunderbird-theme-adwaita, gigolo, gscan2pdf, httrack, linkchecker,
 loggedfs, netactview, pacmanlogviewer, parallel-python, pyrenamer.

 I read daily the AUR general and AUR requests mailing lists but I 
never
 participate in the discussions, after many years of discussions in 
other
 ML and forums I lost the pleasure in writing stuff inside the 
communities.
 The same applies to IRC, too much time spent in helping others (I 
was

 also HelpOp in #irchelp) forced me to away even from IRC.

 My job coincided with my favorite hobby so, apart my personal 
projects

 (see GitHub) I love reading heavy books (technical, development,
 sysadmin, networking but also theater or classic novels) and 
watching

 films when the TV is not owned by my gf.

 Thank you for reading up to here.
 Best regards

 Fabio Castelli / Muflone





I'm confirming my sponsorship. I think that Fabio has great 
experience,

and has excellent packages in AUR.

Merged 0ad-svn into 0ad-git because git is the correct VCS, and the

 This one may be controversial. Cedega is a very, very old fork of Wine
 (back when they had a different license) which hasn't been updated in
 a long time - today it operates through mostly GameTree and has gone
 a completely different route. These packages don't even build anymore.

 Merged both cedega pkgs into gametree.

Forwarding this to AUR General so that the world can see how nice a guy you
are. Insults, racism, what else have you got in store? I've taken the
liberty to suspend your AUR account, because, yeah, us higher ranks
motherfuckers can do that. Now please reflect upon your behavior and
realize what an hypocrit you are saying _we_ are the one who destroy the
community, there is no destroying people who behave like _you_ do.

Now, if you don't want to depend on us doing the work for you, for free, be
my guest, make your own distro, alone, see how you fare. But stop creating
duplicates out of sheer lunacy because you couldn't bear waiting a single
day. That's right, _a_ day. FYI, Firefox 29 was released on 2014-04-29 [1]
and according to our SVN our package was updated 10 days ago [2], so that
makes a 1 day delay, not a week. Please get your facts straight before
assaulting people.

BTW, that bit about grammar was quite funny, there isn't a single error in
mine, however I'd really not vouch for yours.

 As I understand it, Compiz upstream no longer packages all these
 components separately. They are all developed and packaged together in one
 launchpad project. That is why we have two main packages in the AUR for
 installing Compiz 0.9, compiz-dev and compiz-bzr. I've had a look on
 launchpad and this seems to be the case. For instance: The compiz-ccsm page
 (https://launchpad.net/compiz-ccsm) lists 0.9.5.92 as the latest version
 when it's actually 0.9.10. Therefore (unless I am much mistaken) all the
 packages above are obsolete and can never be updated to their latest
 upstream versions.

 I propose that all the dev packages above be merged with compiz-dev (
 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/compiz-dev/)

 and all the bazaar packages be merged with compiz-bzr (
 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/compiz-bzr/)

  I haven't tried building the fluidr3 package recently, but that sfark
  format is a pain in the neck anyway. The fluidr3 soundfont from
  soundfont-fluid doesn't use that and comes with changes from the
 musescore
  guys, so it's actucally a more up-to-date version of the original fluidr3
  by hammersound. I'll merge fluidr3 into soundfont-fluid. Thx.

 Sfark decompression became a non-issue early last year. [1][2] The
 upstream author made contact, and sfarkxtc is maintained by a known
 (at least to me) member of the Linux audio community. [3]

 A sfark-compressed soundfont is still helpful for people with slow
 Internet connections; 72 MB from 124 MB is a 42%, 52 MB reduction!
 That's an extra 13 minutes and a dollar (or even more) for some.

 Fair enough.


 In conclusion, soundfont-fluid is a better package name, but the
 original fluidr3 that existed in the AUR and depended on a
 decompressor is (since Feb 2013) not obsoleted by musescore's changes
 -- unless they're actually critical to be worth the extra megs.

 Here is the changelog from MuseScore (BlissSam: which BTW is shipped in
the archive, along with the original ReadMe from Hammersound):

Missing note (#94) added to Violin and range extended to G7 (MIDI#103) for
compatibility with MuseScore 2

Anyone not using the Violin font or MuseScore may argue that the changes
aren't critical enough.

I'd rather stick with the version from MuseScore, but yeah, bandwitdth is
not a problem here and as you pointed out, I understand if people would
like to have separate packages. How about soundfont-fluid for the original
soundfont from hammersound and soundfont-fluid-musescore for the modified
soundfont?
