Hi,
Recently I received a notification message that a package I was co-maintainer from had changed ownership.
I looked at aur-requests archive and saw the orphan request was filed on Sat Jan 2 09:42:38 UTC 2021.
The request was accepted on Sat Jan 2 09:42:38 UTC 2021 or within a second !
I checked https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_submission_guidelines#Requests which states
Orphan requests will be granted after two weeks if the current maintainer did not react.
The immediate acceptance has made it impossible for the maintainer / co-maintainers to respond.
Is the wiki incorrect wrt policy for orphan requests ?
If so, where is the correct policy described ?
Yo, The only exception is with packages that has been flagged out-of-date for months, which was the case here if this is about openrc.
The package base has been flagged out-of-date since 2019-07-27.
So with half a year with an OOD flag and no actions the orphan request gets automatically accepted. -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16
