[Slackbuilds-users] 100+ builds up for grabs

[Eugen Wissner]

Hi,

rabbitmq-server depends on elixir. It is orphaned currently but I'm
planning to take over the maintenance of it and rabbitmq-c.

Just a few days ago I reached out to the elixir's maintainer and asked
for an update. I've already tested erlang-otp 27.3.4.17 and elixir
1.18.5 and have a first version of patches (elixir builds as is,
erlang-otp needs some work). So I offered the maintainer to provide the
patches for an update. He responded very quickly (faster than I could
reply) and agreed to update as soon as I send him the patches. So
I'm currently working on cleaning up the patch.

The elixir package doesn't seem to be abandoned, but since its version
in the repository is quite old, I'd like to check in with its current
maintainer once more, just to be sure.

Best regards
Eugen
