* teward throws Eickmeyer under the bus in -release14:06
Eickmeyerteward: I saw that! Dang, man! I mentioned it once and that's a "nag"?14:45
* teward is just trying to make it more important for AAs to look at :P14:45
EickmeyerOvenWerks: https://github.com/VCVRack/Rack/pull/140615:06
EickmeyerCould use a +1 at the least.15:07
OvenWerksEickmeyer: I suspect it may get forked at some point with the original becoming less relevant16:20
OvenWerksI get the sense this dev is not someone to listen to other devs for whatever reason16:24
OvenWerksGetting messages frompackagers who wish to add his application as a package to their distro is not the same as a "customer" who says: "having to download every time there is an update and reinstall is a pain in the neck, how come you don't suppy debian (put distro name here) packages?"16:27
OvenWerksOr "how come I can't get this on my distro SW installer?"16:30
EickmeyerYeah, a little tragic, really. If that's the case, then I'll just have to explain to people that want this in Ubuntu that the developer is uncooperative.16:31
OvenWerksActually, give them a line to add to his as an issue16:32
OvenWerksLike get them to say: "I like this software, but it is a pain to install, can you make a ubuntu package?"16:33
OvenWerksWhen he says "I don't package" or something like that, then it is time to say: " the distro devs say you won't take PRs to make it packagable."16:35
OvenWerksThen: "never mind, there is a fork that does it right..."16:37
EickmeyerWell, they don't have to package. They just need to create a viable source tarball, which is all that PR does. Seems as if they have NBH syndrome.16:37
OvenWerksVery much so16:38
