<div><font face="monospace">Hi Diniz,<br>
<br>
I figured out how to build it from source code which I prefer
and also is more on the spirit of SlackBuilds.org. Would you be
interested in converting your SlackBuild to use the source code
instead of precompiled binary? I'm happy to give it to you to
maintain.<br>
<br>
I've attached a tarball of the new version - just change the
maintainer name and submit to SBo.<br>
<br>
It's a bit different to normal SlackBuilds because we need to
stop it downloading .go files while building (SBo generally does
not allow network access when testing submissions). Therefore
the maintainer must run the SlackBuild before submitting. This
will create a "vendor" tarball of the .go files that are needed
and stop running. When the vendor tarball is made, it should be
uploaded to slackbuildsdirectlinks at sourceforge. This is a
common repo for files needed for various Slackbuilds. If the
maintainer now runs the SlackBuild again, the required .go files
are unpacked from the vendor tarball - no need for network
access and the build now runs to completion. This is also how
normal user will build - they have access to both source and
vendor tarballs (listed in .info file), so can build without
further network access.<br>
<br>
To upload to slackbuildsdirectlinks, you will need a sourceforge
account. When you have that, email Willy and ask for access to
slackbuildsdirectlinks.<br>
<br>
In this case, I uploaded the vendor tarball with:<br>
rsync -av gitlab-cli-1.102.0-vendor.tar.xz
<a href="mailto:cwilling@web.sourceforge.net:/home/frs/project/slackbuildsdirectlinks/gitlab-cli/" target="_blank">cwilling@web.sourceforge.net:/home/frs/project/slackbuildsdirectlinks/gitlab-cli/</a><br>
All future vendor tarballs could go to the same location.<br>
<br>
Please ask any questions about this method - I am keen to have a
build-from-source version at SBo.<br>

Diniz,<br>
<br>
I see that you are listed as the maintainer for gitlab-cli at
<br>
SlackBuilds.org.<br>
<br>
The version in the SlackBuild is 1.51.0, published about 18
months ago. <br>
The latest version at the gitlab repo is 1.102.0 and I wonder
if you <br>
would consider updating the SlackBuild for the new version?<br>
<br>
I notice that you haven't made any contributions at SBo since
December <br>
2024. If you no longer wish to maintain gitlab-cli, I would be
happy to <br>
take over maintainership of this SlackBuild.<br>
<br>
What do you think?<br>
<br>
