it looks like the packages are no longer there. I tried to download them and it said they were no longer there.

*waaah*

ok..my first packagebuild.
can you guys look over the PKGBUILD and make sure it doesn't suck?
ie. all the things are put in the correct places afterwards?

pkgname=webalizer
pkgver=2.01
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A fast, free web server log file analysis program"
url="http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/"
license="GNU GPL"
depends=('gd' 'libpng' 'zlib')
makedepends=()
conflicts=()
replaces=()
backup=(etc/webalizer.conf)
install=
source=(ftp://ftp.mrunix.net/pub/webalizer/$pkgname-$pkgver-10-src.tgz)
md5sums=('9217595005aec46a505e1fb349052a8e')
                                                                                
build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-${pkgver}-10
  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
  make || return 1
  mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/etc
  mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/bin
  mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/man/man1
  make ETCDIR=$startdir/pkg/etc prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install
}

It compiles ok. and the package looks good.
The only thing I wonder about really now is the need to do the mkdir -p stuff.
The directories were not being created. I suppose that is makefile specific...
is that true?

also, it uses a config file called webalizer.conf.sample. The user is supposed to rename this file to exclude the .sample suffix. Does that go into a post install to rename it for the user? or should I leave it as is?

also, when you remove the package, the webalizer.conf file is left behind. (it might be looking for webalizer.conf.sample ?)

Dude why does no one look in my repo??

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=6570&start=0

Been there for ages...

See sig if you wanna just pacman -S it

EDIT: in fact it's been there longer than the above links....

cactus · 2004-11-11 02:13:37

I searched the forum for webalizer..got a couple hits..checked em.
nothing.
so I asked..got one link..it didn't work.

so, I made my own PKGBUILD.
What did you expect me to do?

EDIT: searched again for the hell of it, and indeed. there is your thread with the package in it..wonder why I didn't see it before. :?
question..you have
depends=(gd)
makedepends=(gd)
do both need to be in there?

I can't say I blame cactus at all, it's a mess. neotuli's post should help us Arch noobs to find the existing stuff now. I made a couple of things and posted them only to get the 'it's in incoming'/'it's in staging'/'it's in a tur'/etc. message but on both of them mine were updated versions so I kept the new packages for my use since the others apparently aren't being actively maintained. :shrug:

neotuli · 2004-11-11 02:26:23

I can't honestly say I blame him either, it is a true mess.

It was this thread that prompted me to write that other one about finding packages at http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=8041 . I see a lot of this all over the place and it's starting to get to me little by little, it's too disorganized.

I should however also say that there is hope on the horizon, the dawn of AUR will aleviate many of these problems and is currently in development. When the AUR system is in place, the confusion and disorganization will hopefully (and should) go bye-bye, off into the pretty red sunset of Arch's past. (now why I stuck that metaphore in there...I honestly can't say)
