Fedora package and more

by Debarshi Ray :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

I have just taken over the role of packaging tla for Fedora. The older
package version is stuck at 1.3.4, and I plan to bump it to 1.3.5
after talking to the earlier packager.

However, I am a bit curious about the status of Arch 2 and when you
are planning to unleash it? Also, are you aware of any projects that
are using Arch?

Happy hacking,
Debarshi

After hard-won experience I've concluded that the right answer is:
I don't plan to announce when I plan to release it. :-)   My focus
is elsewhere at the moment, though, so certainly no release
is imminent.

You can find some projects by googling for "arch repository"
(with quotes around it).   I'm not sure which of those are
currently active and which are not.

Unfortunately the largest public arch repository site (that I know of)
"mirror.sourcecontro.net" is now defunct, as Canonical didn't want to
keep maintaining it (and had actually stopped quite a while ago).

You can find some publicly accessible arch repositories on
arch.sv.gnu.org though.

        arch.debian.org has a few repositories as well.  Not as many are
 as actively used as they used to be, but still.

Actually, not all of them are still active (I, for one, recently
imported a few repositories into Git, the last-minute competitor ;-)).

Thanks,
Ludovic.

Oh, I am sad to hear that...

GNU Arch and a few other of my projects use Arch, of course... (on arch.gnu.org)

http://mirrors.sourcecontrol.net/ is still operational. I'm not aware of
any particular interest in maintaining this, but also don't know of any
plans to shut it down in the immediate future. (I am not part of the
Bazaar team per se these days, so I may be out of date here).

Just from poking around on the website though,
http://mirrors.sourcecontrol.net/uebergeek@.../podius/podius--custom/podius--custom--0/patch-2/ would seem to be updated as of May 2007, so it seems to me to still be mirroring the existing registered mirrors.

I'm reasonably certain that we are not adding more mirrors at this
point.

I am using it for my most recent/active projects
at GNA! like:

http://gna.org/projects/ucl

to find it:

$ tla register-archive http://arch.gna.org/ucl/ucl-2007

and for this, too:

http://gna.org/projects/gee

altough I have to re-upload this one.

I received an email from canonical asking if I still relied on the site,
and saying that they "would like to deactivate the Arch archive hosting
at sftp://mirrors.sourcecontrol.net" (because it's "becoming a
maintenance burden").

Less-Automatic features haven't worked for a long time.  E.g., I created
a new archive last January, and while I can successfully mirror to it
via sftp, I was never able to get mirroring to the publicily visible
site turned on (so it's essentially useless except for backup purposes).
