extra/x86_64/nzbget/ NZBGet v21.1 Switchover to nzbgetcom version

Hello,

https://github.com/nzbgetcom/nzbget developers here.

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/nzbget/ is based on original NZBGet archived/abandoned by original author in 2022 with v21.1 being the latest version.

Since that time https://github.com/nzbgetcom/nzbget has picked up the project, we addressed multiple build problems, performance and stability issues, released a few major versions (v24.3 is being the last one) and we are committed to build and maintain NZBGet on as many platforms as we can. We also merged with other forks (nzbget-ng), and picked up NZBGet on various packaging projects like Synocommunity, Winget/Choco, Linuxserver.io and others.

Corresponding AUR package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nzbget-git maintained by @bkuri has proved our versions (v22,v23,v24 and further on) work perfectly well under arch.

I'd like to suggest official extras/nzbget package to be built off nzbgetcom/nzbget so it gets all the latest updates & fixes.

Thank you.

Hey there!

I suggest you also write to the mailing list and file a bug report against the package. Maintainers might or might not read every thread on the bbs.
