It's been some months, and kdenlive is still listed as orphaned. Anyone know how packages become un-orphaned?

Also, if anyone else is having the same problems, this fork worked for me (the missing dependency is glaxnimate.

I had no idea it was orphaned, I figured it was a KDE project. I used it yesterday and it still works. Crazy!

I just mean the package on Void.

xbps-query --show kdenlive

The maintainer is listed as 'orphaned', i.e. it has no maintainer. So void doesn't have the latest version.

What OS are you running it on??

[–] Ghast@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is the Void Linux group. I am running Void Linux. The repository above goes to void-packages, which compiles the packages for Void Linux.

Ohh biscuits, my bad I didn't notice it was in the Void Linux community. Cheers!

:P No worries.

I'm still looking sideways at new UX things here.

Just want to let you know that the issue was fixed! Thanks for reporting (next time open a GitHub issue instead of commenting on a PR)

I'd usually open an issue, but the issue already existed, and was closed by the Github bot.
