Alpine is available from upstream at version 1.10; version 1.00-2 is the current version available from yum. I'm wondering if there's a specific reason for this; if not, I'm willing to help update it if the package owner(s) is/are busy.
No specific reason, other than not being aware that a new release was available (yet). :)
I can upload a patch for the specfile for ya if you like, it's building on my computer right now. (man it's intensive ;) )
Created attachment 298849 [details] patch for alpine specfile from 1.00-2 to 1.10-1 It was a simple upgrade, I tested it on my computer and koji, and it was happy. Out of habit I ran it through rpmlint just to be sure, and the license was bad, so I changed it to the proper one.
There is a reason: the Fedora 9 freeze that I think just ended. I would also like to add --without-debug (or similar) to the spec. It's also a holiday weekend and I'm traveling, so if either co-maintainer has time before next Tuesday feel free. :)
I can crank this out (for rawhide at least).

Looks like the help output is wrong, you have to use "--enable-debug=no".
keep in mind the license is now incorrect, it should be changed to ASL 2.0 ...
Thanks, I changed the license string (note it's the same license as alpine has always used). This issue is resolved in this alpine build in testing: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=43664 You may download it there for early access, or wait for it to get pushed.
