As I've said here before, I'm happy to hand over maintenance of this package to ayone with some verifiable history. I'm not using Arch or any derivatives anymore, so just give a shout if you want to take over maintenance.

@m040601

I'm not sure. Probably not. Upstream had its last commit more than 2 years ago, so it feels like a dead end to me.

Also, since tmpmail (the app, not the package) uses /tmp/tmpmail as its “cache”, only one user per computer can use this (on a first-come-first-served base). Instead it should use a location in each user's home directory. But at this point it feels like a waste of time to submit a bug report.

Perhaps the app should be re-invented under another name.

Thanks for asking, though.

@kseistrup

Maintainer does not respond. Last upd this PKGBUILD is 2020.

His other PGKBUILD were also last touched in 2021,

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?K=b12f&SeB=m&O=0&SB=l&SO=d

Would you like to adopt both "tmpmail" and "tmpmail-git" ?

Thanks for packaging this.

Would you care to include the manpage and the README in the package?

A suggestion for a working PKGBUILD (that also installs the required LICENSE) can be found at https://gist.github.com/kseistrup/11ede7c0ce5b8d0af5d31292d328be52

Cheers.

Thanks for the PKGBUILD for this "extremely" usefull tool.

There is another PKGBUILD "tmpmail" which was recently abandoned by its maintainer, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tmpmail

Would you like to adopt it ?

Would be great it the same pair of eyes could keep up watching both.

Thanks in advance.

You should specify what this package provides and conflicts with (tmpmail) as per VCS packaging guidelines https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#Guidelines.

johnnybash commented on 2021-05-30 11:49 (UTC)

it's a VCS package, so using git tags should be fine:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#The_pkgver()_function

afaik tmpmail --vesion doesn't even give you the version you are building right now but the version you have already installed?

Hey @dreieck, thanks for the heads-up!

Unfortunately I've distrohopped over to NixOS, so I've lost easy access to most tooling around the AUR. If I ever get time I'll see if I can get your changes commited.

If you want to, I can transfer (co-)maintainership over to you.

dreieck commented on 2021-05-30 10:50 (UTC)

Can you make pkgver() use tmpmail --version as the first part of the package version, please? This is what should be done according to packaging guidelines.

Can you add provides=("tmpmail=${pkgver}"), please?

Thanks for maintaining!

b12f commented on 2020-09-17 15:55 (UTC)

Done. However, since the version wasn't bumped, it won't update in the package database.
