Just so you know.... I volunteered to be a junior dev and was
rejected. I have ~400
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?SeB=m&L=2&K=xenoterracide
packages on the AUR. I file out of date packages on on Arch every day.
I think I filed ALL the rebuild bugs (for perl- packages ) for 5.12.
I've been running it for 3 months. I think I've done everything I
/can/ to get this rolled out. The fact is the small, very small amount
of work that has yet to be done... I can't do.
