I'd be happy if there were more frequent reviews of updated packages, for example I packaged Gap-4.6.3 (http://trac.sagemath.org/14039) and it just lingered on trac until 4.6.4 came out. IMHO we should just get rid of some of the red tap for pure version bumps; If the package maintainer makes an update to the latest upstream then there is no point in somebody reviewing that, it should just be updated automatically. E.g. in Fedora package rpm updates are pushed either immediately by review (Bodhi karma) or after a certain time (2 weeks) without negative feedback.
The 4ti2 spkg is currently broken with newer gccs http://trac.sagemath.org/13498 so the dozen downloads or so might just be one person trying to compile it on multiple machines. AFAIK it doesn't do anything that Sage can't do without 4ti2, so its mostly there to satisfy requirements of other packages. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
