Subject: [aur-general] [rmlint] Package merge
Please merge rmlint [1] into rmlint-git [2]. GitHub dropped
named
downloads
a while ago, and thus the package is outdated.
Thanks

It's out of date, but I don't know about outdated. You can still
get
release tarballs from Github.
But the release tarballs reflect the current state of master, if
I'm not
mistaken.
Nope, they reflect tags. You can get a tarball of master as well,
but
that's not what I'm talking about.
As far as I can tell from the repo, the only existing tag is
'1.0.6b',
which makes the AUR package more recent. Am I missing something?
Just that the author is really bad at versioning. 1.0.8 in the AUR is
from Apr 2011, the 1.0.6b tag is from Nov 2012, and 1.0.0 in the
debian dir is from Mar 2013.
Then rmlint should package the 1.0.6b version found on GitHub if it is
indeed the most recent. No need to merge into the git counterpart.
