Hi!
I see that libarchive is still at 3.1.2 which is 3 years old, while latest version is now 3.2, released circa a month ago. I already saw it is tagged as out of date, but still it has not been updated.
So...is there any issue blocking its update? Or is just packager away for some time? :)
Thanks everyone! Federico
AFAIK the maintainer is active (he's pushed packages as recently as the 14th) — but pacman depends on libarchive for most of what it does, thus I imagine everyone is being extra-careful about making sure it works before a new version hits [core]. ~Celti
