 duties in arch.

 See you guys in devland :)

 From all packages that i maintain in community i only want to keep
 virtualbox. All the others are up for adoption.

Thank you for your contributions up to this point! :-D

As for package adoption, I can take shotwell, balsa, and blueman off
your hands if you would like.

[aur-general] How should *-devel packages generally be handled?

2011-03-15 Thread Ng Oon-Ee
Package foo exists in [extra], and foo-devel in the AUR.

foo-devel is obviously based off unstable tarball releases (otherwise it
would be foo-git, foo-svn, foo-hg or similar).

So let's say foo is at version 4.0 (stable), should foo-devel stay at
3.9 (the last beta/rc/unstable release) or update to 4.0?

Just a general question. My gnucash-devel package is currently pretty
much identical to the one in [extra], and it does seem a bit unnecessary
because the project itself does not currently have unstable releases.

I don't think we need a policy here. Let the maintainer decide. If
they want to spend time keeping -devel up to date with the stable
releases, it's their decision. The users can switch to another package
if they want.

So anything is fine. Even removing it.
