[aur-general] Requesting adoption of two unmaintained packages
Hello folks. The two packages I'd like to adopt are gtkradiant-svn and gtkradiant-gamepack-urt-svn. The maintainer, thoughtcrime, has not uploaded a new PKGBUILD for said packages since 2010, and as-are they are broken. I sent him an email about a week or so ago asking him to fix or orphan the packages, and have gotten no reply. I've fixed the PKGBUILD on my own machine per the comments on their pages, and both now successfully build. I'd be more than willing to maintain them if he cannot. Thanks!
