Packages on the AUR?

[wallentx]

Hi, I was trying to build a completely unrelated Arch docker image that was failing due to it being unable to build ucspi-tcp, and I stumbled across your fork. I was able to build ucspi-tcp, and it's dependency libqmail (your fork) using the ./create_archpkg script.

I basically spent the entire weekend trying to get a working build, and your fork is the only thing I found that I could build, so:

1. Thank you!
2. Will these be on the AUR?

Thank you for the comment. At the moment I have no idea on how to put it in the AUR. My knowledge of arch linux is very limited. I do have all my packages built for archlinux, and other linux distributions, using open build service for ucspi-tcp, daemontools, libqmail and others on

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:mbhangui which uses the latest source from github

and

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:indimail which uses the latest released version code from github

If there are some docs on how to put in on AUR, I will go through them and probably try putting them on the AUR.

Ah, nice! Putting a package on the AUR isn't very hard, and you could probably easily integrate it into your current automation. https://aur.archlinux.org/ https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository

Those are all the docs on it, but you might be able to easily make sense of it just by looking at one of the current ucspi-tcp packages on the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ucspi-tcp-re

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/?h=ucspi-tcp-re

No pressure, but there is all the info if you are interested 👍

Thank you for taking the time. I will definitely be attempting to put daemontools, ucspi on AUR. Taking a look at the existing packages will surely help
