The nixpkgs policy is to package the latest stable release of a package. Can we change the version to 1.5.6 (the latest stable release) for now?

Thanks @ryantm for those fixes.

The nixpkgs policy is to package the latest stable release of a package. Can we change the version to 1.5.6 (the latest stable release) for now?

Sadly, the build system has been changed between those two versions (autotools to meson).
A final release is planned for April (see https://github.com/gkarsay/parlatype/releases/tag/v1.6-beta)

What would be the best course of action ?

  • wait for the stable release in April and submit another pull request
  • submit this package to the unstable channel instead
  • try to port the current stable version

Thanks for your input ^^

Merges to the master branch are what ends up in the unstable channel after they are built by Hydra.

If we already had parlatype in nixpkgs, I would say wait until April for the stable release, but since we don't have it packaged, it seems like the most value we can get out of our work would be to merge this and then do a separate PR to update to the stable version in April.
