simons:
Hi Don,
I'm one week backed up on AUR updates.
according to http://hackage.haskell.org/package/numeric-prelude, the last update of that package happened on Sep 22. Yet, AUR doesn't have that update even though the package has been being marked out-of-date, etc. So clearly your statement that you lag one week behind cannot be true, can it?
I'm about 1.5 weeks behind, due to ICFP travel. There are 299 packages in the queue, on top of the 8134 packages that I've updated over the past 2 years.
Hackage is averaging 15 packages a day uploaded now, but spikes up to 30 packages a day. That's getting hard to stay on top of.
You make it sound as if that were a recent development, but the fact of the matter is that AUR has been lagging behind Hackage substantially for the last 9 months or so. It's not "getting hard to stay on top of". Rather, you haven't been able to stay on top of Hackage for the better part of a year.
Well, actually, AUR was up to date on Sep 21. Please help with tools and processes. -- Don
