Sorry for my lack of communication. I had a very busy time with some final examinations, but now everything is done and I am happy to have passed!
I know, 1.13.0 has been released a while ago already. I prepared the package update and noticed a small issue: die paperless.conf file is missing in this release. This was fixed already and the fix will be part of the next release I guess. Pushing a package update that is missing the config file is not a big deal for people only updating their paperless installations. It would require changes to the PKGBUILD which would need to be reverted in the next update. Besides, it creates a disproportionately big fuzz for users installing the package for the first time. For these reasons and because I think that the next release with the fix is coming very soon anyway, I prefer to hold back the update and wait for 1.13.1.
@Tweety: Yes, I noticed that too. The issue has been reported and fixed upstream already. I have asked twice for a new release upstream so that the AUR package can be updated to build without error again, but there has not been any reaction yet.

For people not using
redis
: there is now an "automated patching mechanism" that will instead use the next best fork ofredis
that is available on your system as theRequires=
dependency in*.service
. This way, anyone can use their favorite fork of it. Keep in mind that upstream does not explicitly say that forks ofredis
work as well, and this further makes the builtpaperless-ngx-venv
package non-portable. Happy experimenting :)
