ping, maintainer, if you're ok with this, add CC-ARCHES...

[Comment 2 Daniel Maslowski 2020-06-25 20:07:57 UTC]

I would like the package to be marked stable, too. :)

What am I supposed to do? How is the process of making that decision? I feel like it's not mine... Can someone just file a PR and remove the `~`?

You are in fact the maintainer of the package, so yes! :)

We have to ask the arches to do it, so in this case, simply add the CC-ARCHES keyword to the 'keywords' box above. Let me know if you have any trouble though, it can be strange doing all of this at first.

Indeed, this feels somewhat strange. =)

Now that CC-ARCHES is in the keywords list, is anything else left? Could only I do it because I submitted the ebuild?

To be honest, I haven't yet figured out much how contributing works entirely. I have like 200 ebuilds more to offer but stopped filing PRs because I was lost. So thanks a lot for your help!

So, here, we're all done, and the bot has done its magic, but would you like to have a chat with me on IRC to walk through some of the miscellaneous bits? I'm quite happy to help you figure out the maze of contributing.

In any case, anytime, on irc.freenode.net #gentoo-dev-help, or #gentoo-proxy-maint, or just PM me (sam_c), I'm happy to walk you through anything like that.

We need more contributors, so this is not a problem at all.

No worries!
