[aur-general] Tuxtype or tuxtyping
Hi, These packages are in the AUR, unfortunately they are both failing to build because, I assume, they aren't being maintained. I was wondering if someone would be willing to go fix them? I was hoping to use one or the other to teach my kids how to type. They have about a 2 second attention span if there's not flashing lights and colors/points/coin sounds involved lol.

ant32 shared an updated PKGBUILD in the comments that works. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tuxtype I've deleted tuxtyping as it was just a duplicate of tuxtype. -- Jonathan Steel
Hi, Awesome, thanks, works great. Why is this pkg not the one in the AUR? Just curious. Thanks Storm On Sat, Aug 17, 2013 at 05:06 PM, Jonathan Steel <mail@jsteel.org> wrote:

It's up to the maintainer to update the package. You could send them an email to chase them up. If they don't respond after two weeks you can send an email in here to ask for it to be disowned. -- Jonathan Steel

I have just sent an email to the maintainer. If the package is neither updated nor disowned within the next week or two, remind me or another TU to disown the package. Regards, Xyne
