Hello,
I went to through this AUR wiki page but did not get the answer. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR
Is there a way to get notified when "Maintainer" updates new PKGBUILD?
We already have way to notify for new comments on AUR package. So possibly it would be easy to extend that without much coding and send notification when new PKGBUILD is uploaded.
New Comment => send e-mail to those who subscribed for comments
New Update => send e-mail to those who voted AND subscribed for comments (or we can have a link called "Notify of new update")
In my opinion getting notified for Update is more important than getting notified for comments.
I see similar discussion on Google around 2012, but I really am surprised that not many have asked for this feature which I thought should be a basic need. :)
PS: I am not looking for solution like pkgbuild-watch. I am looking for option on AUR itself.
Thanks,
Amish.
No, there is not currently a way. It has been requested: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30109 I believe cryptocrack has said that the entire notification system needs an overhaul, and things like this won't get implemented until that happens.
