AUR policy on packages with no version in the source file name

I know that the AUR policy says that no code must be included with the PKGBUILD if you are not a trusted user. But, how do you deal with packages that do not have their version number in the file name: http://www.somesite.com/someproject.tar.gz instead of http://www.somesite.com/someproject-1.0.tar.gz. The problem is that when ''someproject.tar.gz" gets updated, and it will, your AUR package is broken. The MD5 sums won't match and patches may not apply either. You can get around the MD5 problem by not including a MD5 sum, and the package might install correctly if the patches still apply. However, the package version in the PKGBUILD will not match the version of what it installed on disk.

I have some TeX related packages and it is some kind of politics to not have a pkgver in the filename there. But there are announcements on the certain mailing lists or users complain.
So if the version number is stated in one of the distributed files, I take that. Most of the cases can be solved that way. The remaining cases drag0nl0rd's suggestion is doable.

  • Using an InCopy package with different versions of the same InDesign file

    Hi,
    I head up the studio for a London based design agency. We are looking into using InCopy with one of our clients (who will be off-site). In particular this will be working on Annual Reports.
    As an example the issue I am coming up against is the following:
    So far I imagine that we would have our InDesign file and create an InCopy package of all the stories to send to our client. With the content size of these type of documents it may be several days before we receive anything back. In the time between it is inevitable that we will need to carry out design changes. With our current workflow this would involve saving a new version of the InDesign file. When we receive the original InCopy package back from our client we may be working on a version 1..2..3,etc of the InDdesign layout. BUT the InCopy package wants to link to the original file we made the InCopy package from. Is there a way to link the InCopy package into our new InDesign file.
    Many Thanks

    You could try renaming the new file with the old name but I don't think
    that's that's going to be a recipe for success.
    Other than that, you're using a very dangerous workflow. Everything here
    is designed to revolve around a single InDesign file with however many
    assignments or packages there are.

  • Action which saves incremental versions of the current file name.

    I have several folders of PNG files I want to hue to differnt colours and then save a version in each colour.
    I sucessfuly recorded an action that makes the hue adjustments and saves files, the problem I'm having is the action uses the name and location of the file I used when recording the action.
    When it saves each file I'd like it to keep the current file name and add a suffix if needs be. File-1.png, File-2.png etc.
    I'm using CS5.
    Any advice would be brilliant.
    Thanks.

    Use the image processor script and remove the save steps from your action.

  • Replace repo package with svn version of the software?

    I need a package from the extra repository to be a newer, svn version. Since there is all kind of stuff depending on it and I don't want to mess with dependencies, I thought it would be best to create the same package myself (using svn sources) and then just replace the one from the repo with my own, so that, for pacman, nothing really changes. Please correct me if there are other, more 'arch-style' ways to accomplish the same.
    Is there a wiki page that describes the process, or could you please give some hints? I have never created a package myself and I am very unpatient.

    Hey graysky. Thanks for answering! Yeah, there is an svn package for the software in question in AUR. But it's rather old (svn r2186, while the svn-repo is at r2478 now and I need the changes from r2452). So I guess my question would be: How do I create my own arch package using the package files from AUR as a starting point? I have never used AUR. Do I just download the PKGBUILD from the AUR, fiddle with it and read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Creating_Packages ? I somehow feel getting closer! Thanks!

  • Same source file name with a different extension

    Hi All,
    I have a source file which is dynamic all the time. Can I create a target file which has the same name as the source file but with a different extension.
    Scenaio is file to file.
    test. xml is the source file name and the target file name should be as test.csv
    Regards,
    Amar

    Hi Amareshwar,
    you can write a java code (either in UDF or import in imported archive and use in imterface mapping).
    The piece of code is..
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) myParam.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey Filekey = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
    String OriginalFileName = conf.get(Filekey);
    if (OriginalFileName != null)
    NewFileName=OriginalFileName.replaceAll(".csv",".txt");
    conf.put(Filekey,NewFileName);
    And in Integration Directory>Configuration Scenario>your communication channels (both sender and receiver) just select
    Adapter specific message attributes- File name
    This would solve your problem.....
    Regards,

    Plz reward points if you are satisfied with the solution.

  • Error on Data Flow Task MSSQL 2012 Clustered "Description: The version of Lookup is not compatible with this version of the DataFlow. "

    We have an SSIS package that runs on clustered MSSQL 2012 Enterprise Nodes that is failing.  We use a job to executer the package.
    Environmental information:
    Product - Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise: Core-based Licensing (64-bit)
    Operating System - Microsoft Windows NT 6.1 (7601)
    Patform - NT x64
    Version - MSSQL Version 11.0.3349.0
    Package is set to 32 -bit.  All permissions verified.  Runs in lower environments, same MSSQL version.  All environments are clustered.  In the failing environment, all nodes are at the same service pack.  I have not verified if all
    nodes in the failing environment have SSIS installed.  Data access is installed.  We have other simpler packages that run in this environment, just not this one.  Time to ask the community for help!

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi DeveloperMax,
    According to your description, the error occurs when you execute the package with Agent job on clustered MSSQL 2012 Enterprise Nodes.
    As per my understanding, I think this issue can be caused by you use SQL Server Agent to schedule a SQL Server Integration Services package in a 64-bit environment. And the SSIS package is referencing some 32-Bit DLL or 32-Bit drivers which are available
    only in 32-bit versions, so the job failed.
    To fix this issue, we should use the 32-bit version of the DTExec.exe utility to schedule the 64-bit SQL Server Agent to run a package. To run a package in 32-bit mode from a 64-bit version of SQL Server Agent, we can go to the Job Step dialog box, then
    select “32 bit runtime” in the Advanced tab.
    Besides, we should make sure that SQL Server Integration Services is installed on the failing environment.
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

    Hey guys,
    This is the problem. My father just got an iPhone 5. He has a Macbook Pro 2009 with OS X 10.5.8.  The iPhone is not compatible with this version since the iTunes is an older version as well. At our local Apple store in my home country, they told him he needs to upgrade (which I agree of) but that the memory of this computer is not enough to hold the newer OS.
    Please help, he does not really agree with buying a new computer just because of the versions.
    Thank you, I appreciate your help.

    This is what I have. Thank you so much rdr4lfe.

  • HT203088 I have the CANON REBEL T5 1200D, and when i connect it to my mac which is 10.10 the new OS X YOSEMITE it says that it "Cannot be used with this version of the operating system" why does it say that?

    I have the CANON REBEL T5 1200D, and when i connect it to my mac which is 10.10 the new OS X YOSEMITE it says that it "Cannot be used with this version of the operating system" why does it say that if my camera is listed under the supported digital cameras for OS X YOSEMITE?

    Put simply, the minimum system requirements for iTunes have changed. You need a Mac running at least OS X 10.6.8.
    It's best you look online to see if your model of Mac can be upgraded to at least 10.6.8 "Snow Leopard". It should still be possible to order a copy of Snow Leopard if so.

    With all that automatic installations, beware of one thing:
    It's up to the administrator of the machine to decide what VM he drives. Maybe there is a good reason for the admin NOT to drive the latest VM from Sun but a slightly older from IBM? It is not YOUR decision what VM runs on that machine.
    Keep in mind that the JRE is a wrapper around the actual OS and as such it is not to be included with you app. Just think of it as if it would be an optional OS extension. You also do not deliver Oracle with you app if you just need ANY JDBC connection, do you?
    With our customers we do it this way: We tell them that ANY Java 1.4 JRE is good to run our apps, but it is the customer's problem to get one, since we do not know the preferred VMs of that customer, nor could we provide a VM for every OS. For fairness reasons, we provide the latest Sun JRE for Windows, Solaris and LINUX with our app. But we do not start the installation of this.

    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • When saving a File OS Is Creating Multiple Folders With The Same File Name

    Not sure what I changed but, now when I save a any file (ppt. word, Keynote,Pages e.g.,) to the desktop or any other location the OS will also create multiple file folders with the same file name as the file I'm saving. Inside the folders are what appears to be files locating the saved files. What can I do to fix this problem?
    I'm using the 10.7.2 version
    MacBook Pro

    It looks like a finder bug. To replicate, I surf to any website, I right-click on a jpg image, select "Save Image As" and in the window that pops up I type in the filename "000.jpg", I select the folder Pictures, and click on Save.
    BTW, I don't know why, but the file was saved only as "000" without the file extension ".jpg". Does anybody know why?
    the extension is simply hidden. go to the get info panel for the file and uncheck the option to hide the extension.
    Then I surf to another image, and again I save it as "000.jpg" and now it asks me if I want to replace the existing filename, although the existing one is "000" and I try to save as "000.jpg", so I say yes, and then magically the file is saved with the full filename including the extension "000.jpg"
    When I did it a couple of times, always saving image as "000.jpg" from various sources, I ended up with two distinct files named "000" and both in the same folder Pictures.
    Please advise.
    it sounds to me like you saved one file as 000.jpg and the other and 000.jpg.jpg.
    check the info panels for the files for full names to verify if this is the case.

  • Download Error with iTunes 10.2.1 "source file could not be read"

    I recently had to restore my iPod due to some issues I was having. After it was done wiping the iPod, a message on my computer told me that after my computer restarted (automatically), I needed to keep my ipod connected so it could re-sync with my backup file. When it restarted, I waited awhile for my ipod to show up in itunes, but unfortunately it never did. I then went to the support page for this, which I have had to do in the past, and I learned that I had to completely reinstall itunes. This is the second time in the past month I have had to do this. I deleted all of the necessary files mentioned on the support page and then restarted my computer. I then went to the itunes download page and clicked download iTunes 10.2.1, the latest version, which is the same version I had before I uninstalled it.
    _*THE ERROR:*_
    About 30 seconds into the download, I get an error message that reads:
    "Download Error
    /Users/Berry/Downloads/iTunes10.2.1.dmg could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"
    This did not happen last time I had to do this re-installation process.
    Thanks in advance for any help and sorry for the long post.

    Whats the problem with this thing?
    One thing i can tell is that i changed some settings in Micromedia Flash, because i learned that they where spying on US, then boom no more download. It stops and tell me it could not be read from the server. Dont remember if it started right after i changed the settings, but its driving me nuts
