Where are some new packages...

...such as KDE 3.5.9 or Wine 0.9.56? I think they must be in [extra] repo already. neutral

Re: Where are some new packages...

It's only been two days since that version of wine was released, and less than a week for kde, though both have already been flagged as being out of date so it will hopefully be available soon. Keep in mind the devs are doing this in their spare time so it sometimes takes a little time before packages can get released.

And as always, you can use ABS to build them yourself if you're in a hurry.

Sure, but the current version of Wine in the AL repo is 0.9.53 and that was released quite a long time ago now...

Re: Where are some new packages...

Tried it, Roberth, and the build failed. I haven't yet had the time to investigate further.

Okay, I really need it since I can't get my sound card to work with alsa 1.0.15, and I can't get alsa-drivers to work...

Yep, I know. I did that already, but I use wine-git. It was just an example to show that the package was outdated for a long time.

Re: Where are some new packages...

OK, I'm closing this thread. We have an established system for requesting package updates, and that is the out-of-date flag at archlinux.org/packages. The package maintainer is automatically mailed when the flag is set. Please use it.
