Caffeine

Where to get tarballs?

Asked by Stephen Smith

I'm creating a package for this for Arch, I've already made caffeine-bzr but now I want to make caffeine, which should rely on tarballs that can be md5 verified.

Perhaps it's because I've never really used LP before, but I can't for the life of me understand where to get tarballs for specific versions from. The only tarballs I've found are ones for specific revisions, but the package should follow release versions instead of updating on every revision like the -bzr package.

The caffeine main page says "Caffeine does not have any download files registered with Launchpad.", but I pieced together the url for the downloads page (https://launchpad.net/caffeine/+download) by looking at other projects' download url, which displays several source tarballs up to 2.6, but I have no idea why I haven't been able to find a link to that page, so I'm not sure if that's the right place to be getting tarballs from. Also, I would like to use the latest stable release tarball if possible, and the series page shows 2.6 as obsolete and 2.7 as stable (https://launchpad.net/caffeine/+series).

Any assistance would be appreciated!

Actually I would probably do best with a 2.9.x tarball - I tried to whip up a pkgbuild for 2.6 then realized it's back on python2, and I don't want to mess with that right now since I already have a working pkgbuild for the latest revision on python3.

Still looking for some up to date official tarball sources I can use in my arch PKGBUILD. I would really love to bring this package back to arch, as the caffeine-ng fork doesn't have html5 fullscreen detection.
