Hi,
Hello!
On the Arch Linux packaging side, I am maintaining some packages on the AUR[6] and I've submitted a fair amount of Merge Requests on the Arch
Your packages look nice and clean. I couldn't help but notice that you maintain vagrant-git. I don't know how you manage; we dropped vagrant to the AUR because it didn't work well with our Ruby ecosystem. Nice.
Linux gitlab, most notably to add missing nvchecker integration to packages[7].
Appreciated.
I've also been active in the testing team, and started working on small PoC package testing suite using bash, bats and podman[8]. Some packages should obviously be tested on real hardware but, currently, testing packages is a quite repetitive and not well documented task, so I think that centralizing test cases as code could be a good idea.
This looks neat. I'd love to pick your brain about that some time.
I may be interested in contributing to other areas as well in the future, such as bug wrangling and maybe infrastructure/devops (since I'm fairly accustomed to Ansible/Terraform).
As you are currently decidedly active on the AUR, would you be interested in helping with AUR moderation (handling orphan/merge/deletion requests) as well? Cheers, Bert.
