Description Tomáš Hozza 2014-11-15 20:44:54 UTC 
Description of problem:
The Arduino IDE version available in Fedora is quite old. It also lacks support for Arduino Yún or Due.

Upstream latest stable version is 1.0.6, but there is the latest 1.5.8 Beta. [1]

I would like to ask you to update the package to the latest Beta. If you don't have time for it I'm willing to help and offer co-maintainership.

I was waiting for a non-beta release before updating this in Fedora.  It appears that this will happen quite soon, now (https://groups.google.com/a/arduino.cc/d/msg/developers/rlbxoXmV9Q8/9RjasblBMUU), so it's probably time to make a start in Rawhide.

I don't really use Arduino myself any more, so a co-maintainer would certainly be welcome.  I've granted you access.
Comment 2 Tomáš Hozza 2014-11-18 12:31:47 UTC 
Thank you.

I tried to rebase the package during the weekend, but it was not that easy. It'll take more time, however I use Arduino IDE, to have to do it if I want new version :)
Comment 3 Orion Poplawski 2014-12-31 21:43:44 UTC 
Perhaps at least update to 1.0.6 for the moment?
Comment 4 Valent Turkovic 2015-01-25 13:57:31 UTC 
Can you at least push beta package in resting repo? We need new 1.5.x version also for Intel Edison board.

Arduino 1.x is realy, really, really old IDE :)
Comment 5 Tomáš Hozza 2015-01-26 08:08:14 UTC 
Hi.

Unfortunately so far I had no spare time to update Arduino IDE in Fedora. Due to Fedora Packaging Guidelines and the way how Arduino IDE is distributed it is not that trivial.

So if you have spare time, any help is welcomed ;)
