Re: [aur-general] pkgbuild - suggestion

Sometimes there may be a new version out, but the maintainer needs to test and make sure it's working as expected. It may need a patch to work correctly, or it may have a major flaw and every other distro is also avoiding updating to the latest version. The flagging system, I feel at least, is more so there for users to nudge a maintainer if they haven't updated it. Often people can wait a few days after the upstream release for the new version, and if they can't, they should be using the -git version anyway.
