That is not how moving stuff from [extra] to [community] has worked in the past. The dev from extra handles that step. Anyway, updating Seamonkey is trivial. I am really confused why you are dropping this at all. Bump pkgver to 2.14. Everything builds and runs properly (at least for 64 bit, still waiting on the 32 bit build to finish). Not exactly a tricky update. Kind of in the middle of a big national holiday and lots of family stuff right now so I'll release that tomorrow. -Kyle http://kmkeen.com

No open bugs, no open todos, used by 2% of people. Sure, why not. I'll take it. As an aside, could we please never dump packages from [extra] to the AUR with only a few hours of warning? Packages in [extra] are supposed to be held to a higher standard. Not exactly fair to the people who use the software either. Moving straight from [extra] to AUR is irresponsible and the thousands of people who use it deserve better. If you don't want to maintain something from [extra], dump it in [community]. Plenty of TUs are rabidly anti-orphan so you can be sure we'd take care of it. It also provides more time for community feedback. -Kyle http://kmkeen.com
