Gnome Devel Repository

Hi folks. My nature is to always be using the latest, especially when it comes to gnome. So I've created a repository for the latest gnome development release.

[gnome-devel]
Server = http://arch.nesl247.org/gnome-devel/i686

Right now, it doesn't contain every package, but it does contain numerous packages. With 2.21, I'll definitely start doing the whole gnome setup, but for now I'm just doing it as I see the packages.

Another feature of this repository is the inclusion of some of ubuntu's patches. Such as their really nicely redesigned logout dialog, and add to panel dialog. Along with some power management features like hibernate/suspend support in gdm, and gnome-session.

If you have any requests for ubuntu features ported, just tell me, I'll see if I can find the patch and port it.

There's also a slight issue right now, as you can see on this bug: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7415

So you'll need to have gnome installed, then remove control-center with pacman -Rd control-center, then pacman -S gnome-control-center, and then finally pacman -Su. So if I did something wrong in the PKGBUILDS that causes this issue, please tell me and I'll fix it and can update that bug report. Thanks

For users of my compcomm repository, in that repo, you'll now find a packages called compiz-gnome-devel-git and emerald-gnome-devel-git. You must install those manually after removing compiz-git and emerald-git with pacman -Rd compiz-git emerald-git. After that, you'll be fine, as the new packages have a provides entry for the non gnome-devel versions.

So thank you all, and I hope you enjoy it. Please feel free to report any bugs to me.

Nice!  I'll definitely be using this unless it causes major breakage.  Thanks for the repo.

Edit:  Actually, is there anyway to get murrine working with 2.19?

Re: Gnome Devel Repository

Why, the package doesn't work that is in community? If it doesn't, I'll build it no problem. Just gotta know first.

I don't find the Fonts preference anymore after updating control-center(the only app your repo updated on my system)...:/

Re: Gnome Devel Repository

If I sounded rude, didn't mean to be. Just meant to say, don't have a 64bit install so I can't make packages for it.

Yeah, it seemed a lot of things broke when I upgraded libwnck.  For some reason nothing could find it.

Re: Gnome Devel Repository

That's because the soname is different. Try and give me a list of packages that you need that broke, and I'll package them.
