I don't think it's been understood with this package by what is going on.

I don't mean outdated in the since that no one is maintaining it, or that it's even considered an older outdated version in that since either.

I'm saying that person maintaining this, Eric Bélanger for Arch doesn't seem to understand this and this version he put up was only done last month, that is why I was reporting this as a bug...

But SORRY I see that I can just flag it and have it go to the maintainer...


THANKS

I understood you the first time. Last month, I only rebuilt the package against the new ffmpeg and did some clean up. The 0.4.5 release dates from 2008 so it's not surprising that it has problems. I'll update the package to a svn snapshot (probably after the holidays).

Hi Eric,

Great, thanks and by the way, do you know if gpac is being actively developed, that the svn is pretty active?

Thanks again and Happy Holidays to you! :)

The svn looks pretty active with the latest change done yesterday.

Hi,

Sounds great! But if we're dealing with a svn, how often will Arch users see updates to this when they run 'pacman -Syu'?


THANKS

The package will use a snapshot (like all similar case in the repos) which will be updated as needed.

THANKS, can't wait for it! :)

Happy Holidays!
