Hello,
I would like to drop the multiget package from [community] for the following reasons.
- the tarball does not build. The error consist in a missing header file and was reported twice on upstream bugtracker without an answer
- the latest svn-checkout builds, but the revision number is still low, it is 3.
So what do you think? Should I upload a svn-based PKGBUILD or drop the package? In svn there is a desktop file, which never made it to the tarball. This would at least allow me to remove multiget from the list in FS#23387.
Upload an svn-based PKGBUILD. multiget is one of the very few download managers that can be compared to stuff like IDM, FDM. In fact, other than fatrat, I think it's the only other one. I say we should try and keep this maintained if it's not too troublesome.
