Hi,
You can't update a package without being a maintainer / co-maintainer for it. However, since the package is currently orphaned, you can become the maintainer for it and push the update.
If you don't feel like maintaining the package on the long run, you can simply disown it right after you pushed the update. The package will just be orphaned again, leaving the place for someone else to step up as the maintainer if desired.
Thank you Robin, I'll do that. I spent a few more hours today and cleaned up all (99.9%) of the warnings. It now builds clean without spewing a ton of preprocessor #warning messages and c++20-compat messages. You can actually see what is building. The package works really well. It's a shame the licensing caused Arch to drop the package. mongodb is an interesting document (as opposed to relational) database. I would have never looked into it had it not be a dependency for one of the eGroupware apps. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
