@serxxx well, it's not recommended to use makepkg -g to calculate hash, especially if you are the upstream. The hashes should be calculated independently, otherwise you are accepting whatever you just downloaded.

If you don't care enough for calculating hashes upstream then you may switch to git sources instead of tarballs which use hashes internally. It would be best to sign tags/tarballs with gpg.

@egrupled There was no decision; it's what makepkg -g and makepkg --printsrcinfo produce by default in the official @latest archlinux container. https://hub.docker.com/_/archlinux. I replaced a hand-rolled script with an official tool, and accepted what it generated.

Why?

@serxxx what was the reason behind changing sha256sum to md5sum in https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=gotop&id=0e5001a04dd82b1f41a54f7f494484a51c57369f ?

Thanks folks. I appreciate the smooth transition.

Yeah that sounds fair. It would be good then to switch the upstream in all of the gotop packages. It may also be good to add serxxx as a co-maintainer of the packages. I can add him to gotop-bin but he'll have to request co-maintainership for the other packages.

I've looked into this a bit and don't see any reason this package shouldn't be updated to follow @serxxx's fork. The original upstream is clearly deprecated, and clearly that fork in particular is where development activity is and I don't see any reason not to trust it. I think keeping this package name but pointing to the fork as the current upstream is the best outcome. I would only recommend a new package name if the original upstream might keep putting out releases which does not seem to be the case here.

@serxxx I'm not really sure what the AUR policy is about changing the upstream of a package. It might be fine but I think it would be best if we got an expert opinion about it first, since the recommended approach might be to actually create a different package for the fork.

serxxx commented on 2020-02-13 22:08 (UTC)

@FabioLolix, cjbassi has stopped working on gotop and has deprecated his (original) fork of the project. I'd like to change the upstream URL on this package to an actively maintained fork, and change the package maintainer. While I've been using Arch for a number of months, I haven't contributed to Aur, so what's the process here?

cjbassi commented on 2019-10-15 23:17 (UTC)

@uffe Thanks, just removed git as a makedepend.

uffe commented on 2019-09-02 11:58 (UTC)

I just built this package (gotop 3.0.0-3) with success on a server without git installed. I had no problems at all.

I do not see why "git" is mentioned as a makedepend requirement ?
