[SOLVED] Seeking for advice at aur package managment.

Hello again.
I've been using arch for a little time but this far I like it more eveyday.
I've installed virtualbox PUEL from the AUR with makepkg and pacman -U. It's working fine.
But I want to install more software from the AUR. Actually, maybe I'll be installing lots of software from the AUR. My question is, since these software is installed "manualy", is there an easy way of keeping it up to date?
I've tried yaourt but I really don't like it very much. (Im not using sudo [maybe later] and it asked my root password 3 or 4 times and finally wasn't able to install anything; pacman works fine. Yaourt has no good documentation) I even created an AUR account to see if there was some way of getting notifications of updated packages to upgrade them manually. But this far, I haven't found any satistactory solution.
Edit: Also, I've seen that at least for virtualbox and yaourt, there are repos that can be added to pacman. Can I add a repo for each piece of software chosen from the AUR? Are there repos only for some "very used" software?
Thanks for your advice.

Actually, I think that with yaourt you could do the best update for all AUR-installed packages. yaourt -Syyu --aur --devel for example.

Try aurbuild as well

Except for [community] of course
I can think of two unofficial repos:
repo.archlinux.fr
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686
or
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/x86_64
and adslgr32/64
amd64
[adslgr64]
Server = http://adslgr64.tiven.org/archlinux/x86_64
and the
i686 one
[adslgr32]
Server = http://adslgr32.tiven.org/archlinux/i686

[SOLVED] yaourt how to update aur packages

Hi!
I got a quick question. I thought that yaourt is able to update old packages installed from Aur automatically.
So for example I type as usually yaourt -Syu --aur but I noticed it doesn't show AUR packages I can update. Only from core/extra/community
For example I just typed:
yaourt yaourt
1 aur/yaourt 0.9.2.6-1 [0.9.2.5-1 installed] (2406)
and see that I can update yaourt. I have other packages installed from AUR, how do I know that a newer version is available without checking it manually?
edit:
so I am happy to mark it as solved. It wasn't a bug, but it is a way how yaourt works.
yaourt -Syu --aur shows packages from core/extra/community.
If I press Y (to install them). It shows a list again with the information how much to download and install and then after pressing "No" to install them, yaourt continues to check AUR packages in this case.
Julien MISCHKOWITZ, the developer said he could change the behavior
Thanks everyone for the attention!

[SOLVED] can't build an AUR package while installing Arch

So I am nearly there installing Arch for the first time. And I will start with saying that I am really sorry if I missed the answer to my problem but I have had a look around the documentation and the general webz for something regarding this problem and haven't found anything.
I am trying to set my wireless connection up but I apparently need the AUR b43-firmware package installed for my Broadcom BCM4322 [14e4:432b] to be functional.
So I follow the documentation to install an AUR package, but I am stuck at the building stage as makepkg does not allow me to build if I am root, and I am root by default while installing/configuring Arch...
What should I do to build and install that package so I have a wireless connection later on?
Cheers

I am connected to the wired network, and I followed the steps to make it persistent for later, but I just wanted to go through the wireless stuff too to be extra sure I will be able to connect to the Internet later on. As it is the first time I install Arch, I am trying to be extra cautious, and having that security would make me feel more comfortable! Plus, I am keen to learn how to do those things from the command line.
Isn't there a way to switch to a normal user just for a command, and automatically reverting back to root when that action is finished? Just like sudo but the other way round

[Solved] Permissions issues when updating AUR package.

Hi there,
Today i was trying to update some of my AUR packages, but all I got is "Error - all files must have permissions of 644 or 755."
It isn't very clear to me, i've changed all the files/directories permissions and i'm still getting this error so I gave up, i don't know what's going on, i've doing the same package process for a while with no problems.
I can see the SRC file is compressed as root (root/root), I did a fresh Arch install three days ago to use all my hard disk drive (i was dualbooting), so I don't know if that could be the problem, I've changed my user's primary group anyways.
- https://pastebin.osuosl.org/14606/
EDIT*
I don't know why some of my backup files had 400 and 755 persmissions, i changed back to 644, i did it before... and it didn't work...

The source files must have 644 or 755 permissions. In your first paste, the source files have 777 permissions.

[SOLVED] What are Git-type AUR packages?

I read the ArchWiki Entry on Git, but I still don't really understand what it is in terms of Aur packages.
I've seen this a couple of times, where there's a second git version of a package in AUR. For example, when I type 'prey' into Yaourt, I get a couple of results, among them:
3 aur/prey-git 20100424-1 (5)
Prey is a lightweight application that will help you track and find your laptop if it ever gets stolen.
4 aur/prey-tracker 0.6.0-1 (100)
Remote tracking and monitoring application for laptops, smartphones, and other electronic devices
Either would install Prey on my computer, right? What are the differences and/or benefits of either?

You can always e-mail the maintainer and if you don't get a response in two weeks, ask on the AUR ML to take that package over.
In the meantime you can post a link to the updated PKGBUILD etc. in comments on the AUR page of that package.

[Solved] Cant install\compile certain AUR packages

This is a brand new 32-bit build on my laptop. Everything is working great, but for some reason I cant get some AUR packages.

[solved] have to update my aur package

One of my aur package, lib32-libva, was in the need to be be updated.
I've already uploaded my aur packages to aur4 some days ago, so now, has long as i understood, if i update the old "aur" domain package, the change will never be reflected to the new aur4.
So i've updated it via git only to aur4, but the change is not visible to the "old" aur domain.
Is this supposed to happen?
Did i do it right?
Am i supposed to update the old aur packages manually?
Thanks and sorry if those questions has already been answered.
Last edited by kokoko3k (Today 09:31:26)

I think It is supposed to be so, you have to update the packages on both domains. From this email announcing the AUR 4.0.0 pre-alpha release
AUR package maintainers are then asked to upload their packages
to aur-dev.archlinux.org and co-maintain them on aur.archlinux.org and
the Git repository on aur-dev.archlinux.org for some time (roughly four
weeks).

New Oracle on Linux, Oracle noob seeking for advice

I am working as a consultant for a medical group and they are in the process of buying a ERP solution that requires a Oracle DB, since I am a network/security guy I will ask you guys for advice.
The idea is to install Oracle 10g STD One in a Dell 1950 server ( 3.0Gb xeon dual core, 4Gb RAM and 146 Gb SCSI 15K RAID mirrored setup), since they are starting from zero I think this setup will do with some minor upgrades in the future (this setup is for 50 users).
The idea is use RHEL 5 and get the Unbreakable Support, my questions are:
1. Can I run other services on the server without loosing Oracle support, like SAMBA?
2. Are there any differences between Oracle's and RHEL 5 distros?
3. Will oracle provide updates for packages like SAMBA?
Best Regards,
Willian

Prando,
First, EL5 is fully compatible with RHEL5. The only difference is about oracle logos. Whether you deploy rhel5 or el5 or not, you can get the unbreakable support. SAMBA packages are conatained in el5 and rhel5 dists. So oracle will provide updates for samba package and you will not loose oracle supprot.

I seem to have a larger problem on my desktop machine. When I try to untar stuff on that one it creates a .cache directory for some weird reason and populates it with, I think, cached files from my home directory. It ends up having firefox, mc and other cached files in the new directory and then tar just errors out with:
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
Very odd behaviour and I'm assuming some config file somewhere is responsible for this behaviour. But where else can I look apart from .bashrc?
@ids1024, I'll do what you've what you suggested on my netbook later today and record the information to post afterward.
[edit] Here are the contents of that .cache directory, if it helps:
dconf event-sound-cache.tdb.silver_yunzi.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu event-sound-cache.tdb.tengen.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu fontconfig mc dmenu_run

I have been working on a simple desktop environment for Arch Linux, called OpenStudio.se . This is the first time I have made a PKGBUILD and it would be great if anyone with some more experience could help me verify that the PKGBUILD is correct. I have tested it on both x86_64 and x86 systems and it works well and the package installs correctly with pacman.

Thank you very much for the input Stefan. I will update the PKGBUILD according to your suggestions.
About the empty dir /etc/openstudio
The openstudio package contains a system configure script. When executed this script will set-up some global config files (shared for all users) in this dir. The reason why I created it already during installation is because I do want it to be removed if you decide to remove the openstudio package. The reason why it is empty at the beginning is because I do not want to over-write its content when openstudio package is upgraded.
Maybe there is another standard way of solving this kind of issue, but to avoid the error you mentioned about an empty dir I made sure an info file is copied to the dir during install.

Desperate for advice on how to manage a music collection with iTunes

Hi All
Some advice please...... :o)
To elaborate:
--> I want to keep my music in a directory sorted by folders and subfolders that I create and have the ability to tell itunes where to put the MP3s it Rips from my CDs
--> I want to point itunes at this folder (not import! the songs... why have 2 copies of the same thing... really silly!)
--> I want to use itunes to edit tags where necessary and use it to create playlists
--> Lastly I want to activate iTunes to have a directory view (if such a feature exists) and move between the playlists view and this view at will... Also in the list of music on itunes how would i activate a column showing where the music is stored (i.e. the actual music directory)....
Then.....
--> I want to be able to move the folder and the itunes db file to any machine install itunes ... point itunes at the directory of music and the itunes db and presto all my stuff nicely sorted and ready to go...
Sorry this is how my brain works and iTunes just seems to want to do it's own thing...
My wife has an iPod mini... and I though it was cool till I started using iTunes... and now I'm considering an iRiver for myself rather.... I get the feeling that apple is trying to lock me into a way of doing things, be it that they are nervous about piracy or want you to purchase songs/videos etc....
Now I couldn't really care about the iTunes store.... my collection is based on CDs that I've collected over years and years (all above board!)... and iTunes is just frustrating the living daylights out of me!
Show me the light...
Thanks
iPod Mini Windows XP Pro iTunes 6.0

Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General has the location of the iTunes music folder. That is where ripped CDs will go.
The My Documents\My Music\ folder is a special windows folder. If you want to move that, it might be easiest for you to use TweakUI, google for it.
I don't know about the folder view.

the lower it is the faster your ram works
how ever set it to low and your ram may refuse to work
if you dont know how to clear your cosmos
leave it aone
take a look in the nforce forum for all the posts re bios
2.5 were people cannot get their boards to boot at all
and are awaiting msi sending them new bios chips
this was down to the bios setting ram to cas 2
and caused a lot of grief

Seeking for advice over software development start-up question

Hi Admin ,
My friend who is an internet marketer at warrior forum told me about Adobe AIR. He said that programs developed on Adobe Air could not be decompiled. I am a forex software developer that created both a trailing stop ea and forex charting software on the Metatrader 4 open source trading platform. My concern is that the software which i developed could be decompiled.
I have a programming team and they have little or few experience with Adobe Air. I was thinking that before i ask them to research and start developing our software on Adobe AIR platform, could you help us but answering some important questions regarding AIR?
Is it true that AIR applications cannot be decompiled?
Forex software in .ex4 format and .dll files be transferred over to AIR format?
Could there be a communication between AIR and Metatrader 4 trading platform ?
For more info, visit these url :

There is no software that cannot be decompiled and/or reverse engineered. ActionScript is actually one of the easier languages to decompile. There are obfuscators and other protection schemes, but I can't attest to how well they work.
You can write an ActionScript wrapper for dll libraries (in many cases). I don't know what .e4x format is.
An AIR app can communicate with another application or server in a variety of ways. The most common include HTTP and sockets.
