Could you ask upstream to tag a new release? Created attachment 850160 [details] mew-6.8_p20230203.ebuild If you mean a versioned release, sorry, I don't feel like it. It'd be too demandig for the upstream, IMHO. Their tradition is to prepare a detailed change list for each release. [1][2] FYI I instead submit my ebuild, which simply uses a commit id. That's what I mean by "or last rite, please." It's quite probable that most Gentoo users won't be affected. Danke schön (again!) Ulrich for your long time effort in Gentoo. [1] For example see this v6.8 chagelog: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kazu-yamamoto/Mew/master/00changes.6.8 [2] TL;DR: Mew is "a member of the good-ol-still-working-grandpa's-software club". The fact that the developer has not yet abandoned it is enough to make me feel grateful. A sensible release would be an excess.
