Thanks @Cody_Learner. Usually the "normal" (i.e. non-*.git) package tracks the latest stable release. The latest stable release upstream is 20.4 (released almost 1.5 months ago), so this package would usually track that.

You are correct that sometimes the upstream code has issues, and some testing might be required, although 1.5 months is longer than normal. IDK if this is the case here, and perhaps this is why people are holding off.

However, the primary maintainer of the AUR package is Alad, who is presumably the same Alad who contributes the bulk of the commits upstream. I would have thought that upstream Alad would have tested properly before tagging the release upstream, and hence downstream Alad would concur that it was ready for release!

@Rhinoceros The git version currently builds: aurutils-git 20.4.r1.ge5dced1d-1
Possibly they hold back the latest releases https://github.com/aurutils/aurutils/releases for testing?
From the github page:
"aurutils for the release version (recommended)" Link to here...
"aurutils-git for the master branch", which links to the git version on the AUR website.

Is there a reason this is out-of-date? It just seems odd that it's written specifically for Arch but the PKGBUILD has been out-of-date for 1.5 months. (And also weird that there are five maintainers and none are bumping pkgver.)

@Alad, that's true.

Much to my amazement, it turned out I didn't have base-devel installed, hence the confusion with debugedit.

Alad commented on 2024-07-04 14:06 (UTC)

Those are dependencies for makepkg and included in the base-devel package.

kaurman commented on 2024-06-30 17:38 (UTC)

It seems that debugedit has become a dependency?

Alad commented on 2024-06-14 13:11 (UTC)

Fixed in aurutils 19.7. Since aur-depends is affected, so is aur-sync, and you should upgrade manually:

$ cd ~/.cache/aurutils/sync/aurutils
$ git pull
$ aur build -s

@OpusOne, not sure if it helps, but for me everything looks OK:

% aur sync -C -S -d <my_repo_name> -u
==> Using [<my_repo_name>] repository
sync: there is nothing to do

% aur --version
aur version 19.6

% pacman -Qs aurutils
local/aurutils 19.6-1
    helper tools for the arch user repository

OpusOne commented on 2024-06-14 00:08 (UTC)

With the latest update (19.6) this is what we get when issuing: aur sync -u

You can replace custom:ISC with just ISC as per Arch Linux RFC 0016 :)
