I had a similar issue with a different TU (Xyne)
:P (Don't worry, I don't mind being singled out.)
I did indeed miss the discussion on aur-requests. I saw that the
request had
been made by Scimmia and the given reason was one that appeared
legitimate, so
I did not check the packages as I should have prior to the merge.
I agree with your points and I apologize for the mistake.
And the reason was legit, Muflone agrees; it was more my lack of
checking to make sure the current package was in good shape.
gtkparasite-git was a package I fixed up a while back, so I kind of keep
an eye on it. I saw that it had been updated upstream for GTK3, but
didn't actually build and try it. I'll take more care in the future.
While the new interface makes some things easier, the need to correlate
requests on the interface with discussions on the mailing list adds
more work
for TUs compared to the previous system in which everything was on the
mailing
list. I have been negligent in this regard but I will be more diligent
in from
now on.
The idea of using a real bug-tracker was mentioned in another branch of
this
discussion. I like the idea of keeping actions and discussion in the
same
place. Depending on the feature set this could simplify management of
the AUR.
I just hope that such usability will not require prohibitive complexity
in the
backend.
