Is something holding off the update of usbguard?

I tried to update the current PKGBUILD to the latest version and it seems to work just fine.
Also the pthread patch is not needed anymore because it is included in usbguard now.

In the attachments you can find the PKGBUILD diff that I used.

yes, the unclear state of the trust chain is holding up the update. we'll figure out what we do, either re bootstrap "trust" >.> or backport the patches after review

any update on the progress?

yeah we will most likely soon just re bootstrap the trust. It's quite unfortunate and sad that, especially security related projects, do not appropriately handle GPG, backups, trust chains and understand the concept of a strong set. Lets hope the new upstream maintainers will do a better job on that front.

Now that usbgurad has been updated on Arch, this issue has been resolved.
