Hi all, I adopted https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/trayfreq/ a while
ago to nurture it back into health after seeing that it was trying to
use outdated files in /proc/ amongst other fatal bugs. The owners
haven't updated their sourceforge in a while (five years), so decided
to have a hack at rewriting it myself to work with modern
installations. That's enough background, it's mostly working now, but
the PKGBUILD is pointing to my source code.
Question: Should I have the aur package renamed to account for the
fact it's not using the 'true', 'official' sources even though those
haven't worked for years?
Cheers for your opinions.
David, it does sound like you forked trayfreq .
If that's correct, you should give your project another name and then
the aur package would ofcourse also need to change.
There may be an alternative however :
contact dzs6w3 & starfall87 ,the people that created trayfreq, and team
up with them ?
You can contact them through their sourceforge profile pages :
