Hi, first, I'm quite new to archlinux so I'm still learning the basics... The "snaked-git" package at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42305 looks updated, I tried to contact package's author without any success.
I own an updated version of the PKGBUILD file with proper content, but I'm not the owner.
How should I proceed ? Shall I just click "outdated" in the web form ?
Thanks for your help, Fabien Devaux.
Hello, sorry for my late 2 cents, but I think flagging-out-of-date should only be used if the package really is out of date, which cannot be the case for git-packages. A comment with the correct PKGBUILD should be enough for now. However, there are different opinions about that. Btw. the maintainer of snaked-git did not incorporate suggestions made in the AUR comments, did he? If not, it could be avisable to write a PM withe the link to the PKGBUILD to him. Best Regards Stefan.
