Introducing: My Repo

As a short introduction, I'd like to introduce you all to my repo.... currently these files exist:
bittornado
ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper-bcmwl5
ndiswrapper-bcmwl5a
torsmo


See my signature for details.
I will be adding more ndiswrapper drivers as people need them, so if you need any, let me know.

Re: Introducing: My Repo

An specific reason you aren't going to be a trusted user? or is this just to show them what you can do? smile

Re: Introducing: My Repo

well, unless being elite comes with a "optional" donation of $19.95 a month plus the cost of a time-share in the Bahamas...

seriously though, I figured it was only certain people who could get TURs and I figured there was some long process involved... this is just easier...

on a related topic, how would I go about pushing a PKGBUILD or package to one of the repos... I'd like to get the ndiswrapper(-*) packages I have somewhere

they're required for a handful of people with windows only net drivers...

Re: Introducing: My Repo

talk to one of the turs tongue as long as you have youtr repo self hosted be sure you include your PKGBUILDs  and other build files for viewing so people can be sure you are not compromising their systems

AFAIK, all you have to do to become a TU is find two TUs that'll sponsor you. The best way to do that is supply some packages (like you have) and be sorta well known (like you are) and probably mail the TU mailing list and ask politely. (you could try being impolite too, but it may not work).

http://tur.archlinux.org/conditions.php  has a how to become a TU section.

on a related topic, how would I go about pushing a PKGBUILD or package to one of the repos... I'd like to get the ndiswrapper(-*) packages I have somewhere

become a TUR and put them in staging. The way its supposed to work is the official package maintainers grab packages from staging and include them in the official repositories but... lets just say that staging is getting bigger cause packages are going in faster than coming out...

All this will change when they finish the new package submittal process.

Re: Introducing: My Repo

PKGBUILDS are now provided in the /pkgbuilds dir of the repo (browse access should work fine)
