Re: [aur-general] google-earth - Integrity checks (md5) fail
Hi, 2013/7/17 Oon-Ee Ng ngoonee.t...@gmail.com: Fair enough but I would not call Ralf a first-timer perhaps to the AUR list, but certainly not to Arch. Good point, I only had this list in mind. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU

You should post this as a comment on the google-earth AUR pkg site insted of sending it here. It will probably go unnoticed.

And yet your original post was merely output from your shell. You aren't discussing anything at all, just being redundant in an inappropriate forum with nothing of value to add. Is this a serious issue for you? What does general public to discuss mean? It means *discussing* things like: - removal/merging/orphan requests - general operating procedures, best practices - peer reviews on PKGBUILDs Rarely, if ever, do people simply dump command output on aur-general and expect anything to come of it. You're the minority.
Re: [aur-general] google-earth - Integrity checks (md5) fail
Ralf Mardorf, The full description is not general public to discuss but: This list is for Trusted Users, Arch Linux developers, and the general public to discuss issues surrounding the Trusted User structure and the Arch User Repository (AUR). It describes who and what, it's pretty clear. Dave Reisner, Rarely, if ever, do people simply dump command output on aur-general and expect anything to come of it. You're the minority. This is a logical fallacy and an appeal to popularity, this doesn't make him wrong. As a first-timer, how could he know that posting what he judged to be an issue, proved not to be an actual issue? It certainly was about the Arch User Repository. When applying some good will, I think it's clear that he thought he posted to the right communication channel. Even though his post contained no formal arguments, no single post can be a discussion in itself. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU
