-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello there everybody! Today I thought I'd give the Lumina desktop a spin on my laptop. That's not the best place for any self-compiling orgies, so I decided to install it as a binary (package)... root@mobilix:~ # pkg search lumina lumina-1.1.0.p1,2 Lumina Desktop Environment lumina-i18n-1.0.0 Lumina desktop environment localization files This surprised me because the current v1.2 has been out since the beginning of January. So I decided to look in the ports and sure enough, v1.2 has been there for six weeks now: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/x11/lumina/ Is this a thing with the mirror that the pkg tool is choosing or are the packages actually not updated that often? I actually thought this was an automated process that ran every night - or at least on a regular basis with shorter intervals than 6 weeks. Or am I missing something here? Cheers!
