New PKGBUILDs for calpp and cpyrit-calpp

Hello
I wanted to try the calpp backend for pyrit (a WPA cracking utility), but couldn't find them in either the official repositiories or in AUR. There for I have created new PKGBUILDs for these, they work on my system (x86_64 3.1.0-4-ARCH), but as these are my first ones I wanted to post them here for review before I upload them to AUR.
The main thing I have doubts about are the dependencies. I think I have listed them all but I'm not sure.
Here is the PKGBUILD for calpp:
# Maintainer: Martin R. <mr-ger [at] hotmail [dot] com>
pkgname=calpp
pkgver=0.90
pkgrel=2
pkgdesc="Library to allow writing ATI CAL kernels in C++"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/calpp/"
license=('GPL3')
depends=('amdstream' 'boost')
makedepends=('cmake')
source=("http://sourceforge.net/projects/calpp/files/$pkgname-$pkgver/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz")
md5sums=('efc3f519492ac8d3178fe42115ce3637')
_streamdir='/opt/amdstream'
build() {
cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver"
sed -i "s|\$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}/lib|${_streamdir}/lib|g" CMakeLists.txt
sed -i "s|\$ENV{ATISTREAMSDKROOT}/include|/${_streamdir}/include/CAL|" CMakeLists.txt
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .
make
package() {
cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver"
make DESTDIR="$pkgdir/" install
And here is the PKGBUILD for cpyrit-calpp:
# Maintainer: Martin R. <mr-ger [at] hotmail [dot] com>
pkgname=cpyrit-calpp-svn
pkgver=308
pkgrel=3
pkgdesc="CAL++ backend for accelerated attack against WPA-PSK authentication, development version"
url="http://code.google.com/p/pyrit/"
license=('GPL3')
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
depends=('python2' 'catalyst-utils' 'pyrit-svn')
makedepends=('calpp')
conflicts=('cpyrit-opencl-svn')
_svntrunk='http://pyrit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk'
_svnmod='cpyrit_calpp'
_caldir='/usr/include/CAL/'
build() {
svn co "${_svntrunk}/${_svnmod}"
cd "${_svnmod}"
sed -i "s|VERSION = '0.4.0-dev'|VERSION = '0.4.1-dev'|" setup.py
sed -i "s|CALPP_INC_DIRS = \[\]|CALPP_INC_DIRS = \[\'${_caldir}\'\]|" setup.py
LDFLAGS="" python2 setup.py build
package() {
cd "${srcdir}/${_svnmod}"
python2 setup.py install --root="${pkgdir}" --optimize=1
Thanks in advance
EDIT = Updated the PKGBUILDs

Thanks for the respones Stebalien! I have changed the things you pointed out and updated my first post.
I have also run namcap on both packages and their PKGBUILDs. The only thing namcap complains about on the PKGBUILDs are the lack of contributer tag, which I think is unnecessary as I'm listed as the maintainer.
On the cpyrit-calpp package namcap complains about unnecessary dependencies:
cpyrit-calpp-svn I: Depends as namcap sees them: depends=(catalyst-utils python2)
I tried this dep array with all packages listed before uninstalled (well, catalyst and libpcap I couldn't uninstall) and it didn't work. When I added 'calpp' to makedepends it worked, and it ran after I uninstalled calpp again.
As cpyrit-calpp-svn is a backend to the pyrit-svn package and pointless to install without pyrit-svn I added it back to the array. Might add that this is how the dep array looked before:
depends=('python2' 'openssl' 'zlib' 'libpcap' 'amdstream' 'catalyst' 'calpp' 'pyrit-svn')
This is what namcap is telling me about calpp:
calpp I: Depends as namcap sees them: depends=()
BUT it will neither build nor will it compile one of the examples without both amdstream and boost (not just boost-libs). Therefore I have not changed the dep array for calpp.

  • How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

    How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
    After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

  • I just downloaded the new update for itunes and the itunes store wont open up it is taking a long time it still hasnt loaded since 5pm

    i just downloaded the new update for itunes and the itunes store wont open up it is taking a long time it still hasnt loaded since 5pm, i also cant sighn in either it just keeps on saying accessing itunes....

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 &amp; above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • New Blog for SOA and Application server,BPEL

    Hi Everyone,
    I have created a New Blog for SOA and Application server and BPEL and i would like everyone to have a look at it and give me some comments on it like what is the other information i can keep which can help us all etc....
    You can visit it at http://oraclefusionmiddleware.blogspot.com

    Oracle Application Server consists of Oracle HTTP and OC4J servers which deploys J2EE-based applications.
    Integration server manages all communication, process interactions, Data Transactions among different systems and applications. Oracle integration server consists of all the SOA elements (BPEL, ESB, Business Rules, and OWSM)
    when you want to deploy Java applications then you will deploy to Application Server.When you want to deploy BPEL,ESB Process you will use integraion server(BPEL Server,ESB Server).
    Integration server is just the web server which connects to application server which helps in administrating and managing different applications as a whole

  • My daugther' iphone id under my wife's email and now all music and pictures are attached to that id.  Wife now has an ipad and looking at using the existing id for set up? Would like to establish new id for daughter and not lose or share music/photos?

    My daugther' iphone apple id is under my wife's email and now all music and pictures are attached to that id.  My wife now has an ipad and I am looking at using the existing id during set up?   Thus, I would like to establish new apple id for daughter, associated to her email account, however I do not want to lose or share her music/photos, nor share with my wife's id.  Is this possible, or is it best just to establish a new id for my wife, and then change the email address associated with the existing apple id?

    well if you establish a new apple id for your wife that would be best unless you email all of the existing photos to your email and then when you have established a new id then you log into your email on the new id and save all of your pics onto it by pressing on tthe pic for about 5-8 seconds then options will come up and you press the save to my album ..as for the music if you can copy and paste, through computer, the songs then awesome!

  • Getting new Mac for Aperture and have a question...

    I totally realize that this is a personal preference with no "wrong" way to do it. However, I would appreciate some thoughts so I can form a better idea of how I will set up an Aperture workflow that will work for me for a long time and how to configure my new iMac.
    I use the referenced library workflow and store both my masters and Aperture library on my current internal drive with both backed up to externals. I'm getting a new Mac with the SSD drive for apps and OS (and Aperture library as well). The question is, should I get the mega 2 TB internal HDD along with that SSD for all my masters (which would also include my music and home-made movies)?
    My current photo storage adds up to only 130GB right now and grows slowly. I don't even think I would double that in the next year. I realize that if I had, say, a 1.5 TB size Masters library, the the answer would be obvious that I would need to store externally because the iMac HDD isn't big enough. But that isn't my situation.
    But since I would be able to fit all my photos on an internal HDD (2TB) to use as referenced, is there a better reason to skip the internal 2TB HDD and just get hooked up with some good, high-speed external system and stick with an internal SSD to just handle the OS, music, and apps? In other words, all my media (photos and movies) would always be stored AND edited from an external drive (I will actually edit on the SSD and then move the referenced files to the external). This means that from now on all new Macs I ever get will only need a moderate sized SSD for OS and apps. I would basicallt forever keep all things media on externals.
    I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any help with this.

    One other thing... the only way for me to get a 1GB VRAM now is to buy the top-of-the-line iMac. That's the issue.
    I've seen that also. That's why I added the "If you can wait.." statement.
    If you need to purchase before say late October, then the specs you list for the 21" iMac are quite good and the possibility of developers designing GPU threads that require caching in the VRAM may or may not need amounts beyond 512 MB. The fact that Apple offers an upgrade to the 2 GB VRAM video adapter on their high-end machine tells me that they know that the Pro Apps will be able to take advantage of that amount (not that it is necessary for the enthusiast looking to have a good Aperture experience).
    SierraDragon has much more experience than I with Aperture, so he may be able to shed some light on this one.
    For my part, I run a 17" MacBook Pro (late 2011) which has the 2.5 Ghz i7, 8 GB Apple provided RAM, and the AMD 6770 with 1 GB VRAM. I installed an OWC 480 GB SSD and I am connected to the Apple Thunderbolt Display (because this machine only offers a Thunderbolt port to connect video signals with). Aperture runs fine on my machine (although for some reason cropping takes a couple of seconds now, where it was immediate before the AP 3.3 update). I run Photoshop CS6 and Illustrator CS6 without any issues on this machine, so it is definitely capable of running in a professional environment.
    Since your specs call-out a 2.8 Ghz i7, 16+ GB RAM and an SSD, I personally would not hesitate to purchase that machine if you need to purchase soon. I just mentioned the 1 GB VRAM due to your wanting to be able to handle 4+ years of updates to the OS and software. That doesn't mean the 512 GB VRAM won't work great, just that the 1 GB VRAM would be additional insurance (sort of like Apple Care).

  • Create new  folders for email and photos

    how can i create new file folders for email and/or photos on the iPad 2?
    and, will it also work on the iTouch?
    ALSO, tried to install a wireless printer which looks for documents in the "documents" folder, but i can't save them there from email or anyplace else????
    Thank you for any help

    If you are on iOS 5 and it's an IMAP based email account then you should get an Edit button at the top of the list of your current folders on your email account - if you aren't on iOS 5 or if the account is POP based then you won't get the Edit button.
    Similarly for photos, if you are on iOS 5 then you should get an Edit button at the top right of the Album selection screen in the Photos app which allows you to create new albums and copy (not move) photos into - and if you delete the original photo then if will also be removed from all albums that you've 'copied' it into.
    If the iPod Touch is also on iOS 5 then I think that you will get the same options (though I'm not 100% sure)

  • Grey Screen, so, bought a new HD for MBP and still grey screen! Please help

    The first thing I did was I used CCC to copy the image to the new HD and still got the grey screen, I then tried SuperDuper, same result, grey screen, the old image is still attached wonder if that makes a difference but I selected STARTUP DRIVE as the new HD, I even ran the fix permissions and apple files from DiskWarrior and when I ran Disk Utilities, it passes. I then took out the battery and held the power button down, thought I was getting somewhere as the blue screen stayed BLUE about five seconds longer before going grey.
    Anyway, here are the results from DiskWarrior FILES section, fix permissions and files.DiskWarrior scanned the disk named "Leopard 2 Omni" checking all files and folders for damage and potential
    compatibility problems.

    Explanations:
    Folder Depth: This number indicates how many folders are nested inside each other. If a disk contains only three
    folders and Folder A is inside Folder B and Folder B is inside Folder C, then this disk has a maximum folder depth of
    three. Folders nested too deeply can cause software compatibility problems.
    Permissions: This is the part of the directory information for files and folders that records ownership, what type of
    access, if any, other users have, and designates whether a file is a system file with a special purpose. Files and
    folders that make up a Mac OS X installation must have specific user permissions for proper startup and operation.
    Property List: This is a standard file format for storing data and is often used to store preferences. The names of
    these files normally end with a .plist file extension. Corrupt property list files can cause system instability.
    Resource Data: This is an older file format for storing data and was often used to store preferences. The names of
    these files normally end with a .rsrc file extension. Corrupt resource data files can cause system instability.
    System Symbolic Link Files: These are files used by the operating system that are similar to aliases. If these files are
    damaged it may prevent startup or cause system instability.

    DiskWarrior Version: 4.2 - RE785412

    I think I might have tio do that.
    I have used Drive Genius 3, Tech Tool 5 and Disk Warrior.
    Most say the preferences or repair is okay, but I get a grey screen OOOORRRRR I get an never ending Apple Logo that spins forever.
    Would I use the migrations assistant BEFORE the final BOOTUP to the OS, rather will it give me that option before I create a new account?
    Crazy..
    I have three external hard drives, all with new cables.
    I cloned the Leopard to the new HD and like I said, sometimes it says ok, but still get stuck on grey screen, or endless apple logo.
    Is there a way to boot into SAFE mode via external?
    I notice unless I do a PRAM reset, sometimes I won't hear the APPLE BOOT UP tone and am not sure if after the tone you PRESS SHIFT until you see the APPLE LOGO or BOTH THE APPLE LOGO and GEARS, Then release SHIFT.
    Have also heard of this method, but did not work for me, you go into disk utility, change the size of the drive you are trying to fix, then go back to the exact size you had before doing anything and that apparently creates a new boot volume, has not worked for me.
