Re: [gentoo-dev] Last-rite: app-misc/neofetch
Hey, I was looking at these metrics: https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/branches/active https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/branches https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/issues https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/pulls and it's not looking good. Do we have the wrong upstream in our current ebuild? https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/app-misc/neofetch Here is a statement from upstream: https://github.com/dylanaraps/dylanaraps/commit/d23de5835657d9144938deabd570fe7554d8fe94 -- Best, Jonas

This is only two years without a release. We have packages way way older than that. I know fetch scripts have a reputation, but this thing is kind of a staple in the community and it is still widely used. I can jump in as a proxy maintainer if that is the problem.

Upstream is totally abandoned with no updates for 2 years. The situation has spawned multiple forks and there are different maintained alternatives available now in Gentoo's repository. To list a few: fastfetch, hyfetch, screenfetch If you're aware of more/better alternatives, please add them to the package.mask file at your will.
