Re: Emacs package is too stable?

Hello,

Thanks for the quick response!
Okay, so I guess I should stick to emacs-git in the AUR.
Once the gnu.org infrastructure is back up.
They seem to have a network provider problem at the moment.

Cheers,
Kwang

Hello,

Emacs 25.1 is not yet released, but will be soon. The second release candidate is currently being prepared. The version of emacs in extra is the current stable release, and will probably be updated once 25.1 is out.

If you want to try emacs 25.1 on Arch you can build it youself from the AUR package emacs25-git.

Cheers
Bastian

    Hello,

    I recently started using arch linux and the official package for
    emacs is a bit outdated compared to the one provided from Fedora,
    which is where I come from.
    I understand that the `emacs` package is intended for stable only,
    so I didn't mark it as outdated.
    However, current dev release 25.1 is quite stable, and it would be
    great if it's provided as a binary package, as cloning and
    building with the AUR package is quite a pain.
    The stable releases that is available in the extras repo seem like
    an LTS release.
    Any plans on packaging for the recent tag releases?

    Thanks,
    Kwang
