Original version of a comment on the AUR package openbve that I later rephrased as it seemed to sound unintentionally offensive
Raw

I just got notified of the new package version and I noticed that it now builds a git commit of some unofficial port instead of version 1.4.3 of the original game. Would you mind letting me know why you switched to that port?Also, AFAIK one of Arch's principles is minimal patching, and IMO packaging some git commit as stable version 1.4.3 is closer to 'maximum patching', even if those patches are from some sort of upstream. Would you mind to continue using the 1.4.3 sources for this package (for now) and put that commit into a git package or, at the very, very least, update pkgver accordingly?
