when i first started using arch.Recently it has been fixed and i have
tested and reported it.
However it seems that xzgv package is currently orphaned as this page
shows
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/xzgv/
so is rtorrent and libtorrent.They have been marked out-of-date for
a while now.
is another trusted user or developer will be maintaining the packages in
the future ?
i want to help and i want to maintain the above packages if someone else
has not decided already. so where do i apply and how do i start ?
Note that all community packages are orphans at the moment due to the
backend transition that is ongoing.
I notice that xzgv 0.9.1 is now released. If you tell me whether
updated version needs the patch provided in the bug report, I will do
the update.
