slmodem's PKGBUILD

Just updated my abs environment and can't help but to notice that slmodem's PKGBUILD still points to:

slmodem-2.9.11-20051101.tar.gz

instead of:

slmodem-2.9.11-20061021.tar.gz

When the correct file and md5sum are put into the PKGBUILD, and the directories have been updated, the following patches stop being needed:

kernel-2.6.19.patch
2.6.16.patch
module-parm.patch
2.6.18-utsrelease.patch
2.6.18-devfs.patch

Then the package builds and runs properly.  This has been a thorn in my side for quite some time, I hope tpowa takes notice of this!

Flag the package out-of-date if it hasn't been done.

Re: slmodem's PKGBUILD

In general, if you want to be certain that a dev gets your message, use the out-of-date flag if applicable, or post a bug report or a feature request in Flyspray.
