Hi,
You can't update a package without being a maintainer / co-maintainer for it.
However, since the package is currently orphaned, you can become the
maintainer for it and push the update.
If you don't feel like maintaining the package on the long run, you can simply
disown it right after you pushed the update. The package will just be orphaned
again, leaving the place for someone else to step up as the maintainer if
desired.
Thank you Robin,
I'll do that. I spent a few more hours today and cleaned up all (99.9%) of
the warnings. It now builds clean without spewing a ton of preprocessor
#warning messages and c++20-compat messages. You can actually see what is
building.
The package works really well. It's a shame the licensing caused Arch to
drop the package. mongodb is an interesting document (as opposed to
relational) database. I would have never looked into it had it not be a
dependency for one of the eGroupware apps.
