Description Dennis Schridde 2019-05-02 10:29:22 UTC
According to https://taskwarrior.org/ the latest (dev) version of taskwarrior is 2.6.0.
Comment 1 David Denoncin 2021-02-23 20:12:37 UTC
The 2.6.0 branch is the development branch. They state that "This development branch is not stable, may not even build or pass tests.", which is why I am not willing to package it.

I'm in the process of getting 2.5.3 (latest stable released in january) into the main tree though, which is a thousand commits from 2.5.2.

I'll close this bug in a few months if it's OK.

Technically you can provide a live ebuild. 
Users can decide to run the dangerous code and help to fix the bugs.
Comment 3 luxemboye 2021-10-29 20:36:26 UTC
2.6 got officially released (stable)

On Oct 3, upstream released the new 2.6.0 version and shortly after that,
on Oct 19, 2.6.1, a bugfix only release.

See GitHub repository [0], as the taskwarrior website [1] does not have any
news/blog entries for those releases.

They also seem to now simply use the develop branch instead of a specific branch
for dev versions, if that is of interest for a live ebuild.

On another note, David Denoncin's "getting 2.5.3 into the main tree" process [2]
seems to have gone well.

Sorry for the delay, I'll try and update task this week.

I'm not really interested in producing a live ebuild, so if anyone is please feel free to co-maintain and provide such an ebuild.
