[arch-general] package bup marked out-of-date for several months
bup 0.27 was released upstream several months ago, package has been marked out-of-date since then, could one of the maintainers update?
I have also noticed that the package opencv is out of date. Is there a another way to get the package updated (including submitting an updated package myself)? Zander Bolgar On Sun, Jun 28, 2015 at 10:08 AM, David Kaylor <dpkaylor@gmail.com> wrote:

Complain about it here, I guess. Seems to have worked! :D bup was just updated: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/log/trunk?h=packages/b... As for opencv, it was updated in SVN as well (before your email, though): https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/log/trunk?h=packages/op... but the updated package itself hasn't been added to the repositories. -- Eli Schwartz

Nice, many thanks to the maintainer for updating!

There was a minor release to which I did not update for several months, but I have now gotten around to 3.x. It is currently awaiting some rebuilds due to soname bumps. It will be in [testing] next. Anyway, you can always e-mail the maintainer if you want to enquire or help. -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1

That's a good suggestion, I'll do that in the future. Thanks for the responses! Zander Bolgar

In the future, if you need to immediately bump a package, you could use the ABS. Emailing the maintainer is the best ultimate option, but upping the version number in the ABS will usually work in the meantime.

What do you mean by upping the version number in the ABS? Just bump the version, with no other updates, or update the PKGBUILD to the desired version, because I get doing that.

I prefer asp, it gets you the svntogit sources which are more up to date. AUR package, links to asp homepage: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/asp-git
