Package Todo Lists
Todo lists are used by the developers when a rebuild of a set of packages is needed. This is common when a library has a version bump, during a toolchain rebuild, or a general cleanup of packages in the repositories. The progress can be tracked here, and completed todo lists can be browsed as well.
| Name | Creation Date | Creator | Description | Package Count | Incomplete Count | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| wxgtk no-STL rebuild | 2014-08-08 | Florian Pritz | Rebuild against wxgtk 3.0.1-2 and push to staging. | 12 | 0 | Complete |
| twisted->python2-twisted rename | 2014-08-02 | Felix Yan | The twisted package was renamed to python2-twisted as a Python 3 counterpart was added. Please update your PKGBUILD and change the dependency name to "python2-twisted". Also, if twisted was the only reason not to ship the package with Python 3, you might check "python-twisted" and give it a try. The rebuild is not in a hurry and can be postponed (same as the lzo2->lzo one), and no [staging] needed as well. | 17 | 0 | Complete |
| protobuf-c 1.0.0 rebuild | 2014-08-01 | Bartłomiej Piotrowski | libprotobuf-c.so.0 → libprotobuf-c.so.1 | 3 | 0 | Complete |
| lzo2->lzo rename | 2014-07-31 | Anatol Pomozov | 'lzo2' package was renamed to more correct Arch name 'lzo'. Please update your PKGBUILD and change the dependency name to 'lzo'. The actual rebuild can be postponed, there is no hard deadline for it. No need to push packages to [staging], push it directly to [testing] and then [stable]. This is just dependency name change. lzo2 and lzo are ABI compatible. On a related note - some packages use version restriction for lzo dependency (e.g. lzo>2.06). The restriction can be dropped. lzo 2.08 has been in the repo for a long time and I doubt it will be downgraded. | 24 | 0 | Complete |
| x264/libx264 split | 2014-07-26 | Bartłomiej Piotrowski | In order to support 10bit depth in x264, the package has been split into three standalone packages: x264 (containing CLI tools and development headers) and libx264/libx264-10bit. Please confirm whether your packages make use of command line utilities and if not, replace the dependency on x264 with libx264. Note that x264 in [staging] doesn't pull libx264 anymore. It may be also needed to put x264 explicitly in makedepends array. | 12 | 0 | Complete |
| openconnect 6.00 rebuild | 2014-07-22 | Felix Yan | libopenconnect.so.2 => libopenconnect.so.3 Packages go to [staging]. | 3 | 0 | Complete |

| ghc 7.8.3 rebuild | 2014-07-11 | Thomas Dziedzic | Move to staging repos. Please rebuild dependencies before rebuilding packages. | 44 | 0 | Complete |
| mtree rebuilds | 2014-06-29 | Allan McRae | pacman-4.1 added mtree files to packages to enable use to verify more aspects of the packages installed on the filesystem. These packages have not been rebuilt in a long time so are missing this file. Now with all repos! Note there is no real rush for this, but it would be good to have done before pacman-4.2 is released (scheduled for August). | 1075 | 0 | Complete |
| imagemagick-6.8.9.4 rebuild | 2014-06-26 | Eric Bélanger | libMagick++-6.Q16HDRI.so.4 => libMagick++-6.Q16HDRI.so.5 | 6 | 0 | Complete |

| giflib soname bump | 2014-05-27 | Jan de Groot | Slight API change, comes with a soname bump. Code might require patching, as open/close functions take an integer as 2nd option now. This replaces the old GifFile->Error pointer. If no error handling is done in the software, just pass NULL here. | 33 | 0 | Complete |
| librevenge forces .so bumps in various libs | 2014-05-25 | Andreas Radke | http://listarchives.documentliberation.org/www/discuss/msg00070.html Newly released librevenge required new releases with .so bumps in many libraries used by various applications dealing with documents: * libabw - not yet in our repos * libcdr /usr/lib/libcdr-0.0.so -> /usr/lib/libcdr-0.1.so * libe-book - not yet in our repos * libetonyek /usr/lib/libetonyek-0.0.so -> /usr/lib/libetonyek-0.1.so * libfreehand - not yet in our repos * libmspub /usr/lib/libmspub-0.0.so -> /usr/lib/libmspub-0.1.so * libmwaw - not yet in our repos * libodfgen /usr/lib/libodfgen-0.0.so -> /usr/lib/libodfgen-0.1.so * libvisio /usr/lib/libvisio-0.0.so -> /usr/lib/libvisio-0.1.so * libwpd /usr/lib/libwpd-0.9.so -> /usr/lib/libwpd-0.10.so * libwpg /usr/lib/libwpg-0.2.so -> /usr/lib/libwpg-0.3.so * libwps /usr/lib/libwps-0.2.so _> /usr/lib/libwps-0.3.so | 14 | 0 | Complete |
| Removing glib/gtk from make/optdepends | 2014-05-17 | Eric Bélanger | We are going to remove the old glib and gtk packages from the repos [1]. Obviously, packages that require them will also be removed. This todo list is for packages which has a make/optdepends on either glib, gtk or a package that has glib/gtk in its dependency tree. Remove gtk support or patch to build without gtk if possible. Push the updated packages straight in the [extra] or [community] repos.

| KActivities4 | 2014-05-17 | Andrea Scarpino | IGNORE THIS: non really needed because adding it to kdebase-runtime will add it everywhere it is used. KActivities has been split between kactivities4 and libkactivities4 to allow co-instability with KF5. Packages that links to libkactivities.so.6 needs to explicitly depend upon libkactivities4. | 2 | 0 | Complete |

| Drop nepomuk support | 2014-03-08 | Andrea Scarpino | KDE SC 4.13 packages will not provide Nepomuk and Soprano support.
