[aur-general] Package ownership change request qt-git and qtcreator-git
Hi! Both packages: -) qt-git -) qtcreator-git seem to be unmaintained. I (friesoft) would like to take over maintainership as I've already created new, working versions. Thanks! Best regards, Bernhard Friedreich, friesoft

Did you try to contact both maintainers? You should usually do so before claiming inactivity. However, I'm still disowning both packages since they are not building for me. The patch in qtcreator-git is outdated as well. By adopting both packages you agree that you will care for them like they were your children. Treat them respectfully, feed them, only hit them occasionally and you will soon have two mighty packages at your disposal. Have a good day. Because if do not, I will *make* you have a good day. -- Sven-Hendrik

Indeed I didn't contact them because based on the other packages they had in their list, they didn't look that active and I wanted to get those packages fixed fast. I'll happily hand them back over if they care again ;)

I'll do with my best knowledge =) and have always done - just in a git repo... (http://github.com/friesoft/archlinux-friesoft-pkgbuilds) Have a good day.

-- Sven-Hendrik Thanks again!

Thanks for stepping up to do this. I have had a working qt-git package for a while locally too, but hadn't got round to putting it on the AUR. But I'm more than happy for you to do the work :-) I wonder if you'd consider adding a qt-kde-copy-git package too, which builds from the KDE developer's branch of qt? The package can be basically identical, but it would make sense for it to be maintained by the same person as qt-git so that it can be updated as needed and kept in step. Cheers, Pete.
