I'm using WSL with archlinux distro. I tried to install git bug using yay. I got this error...

install: cannot stat '/home/joaquin/.cache/yay/git-bug-bin/src/git-bug-0.8.1/misc/bash_completion/*': No such file or directory

In the git bug page in AUR there is a proposed fix in the comments section

Another related problem is that the package version in AUR didn't sync automatically after the update 0.9.0 in the repo. Couldn't this be made automatically?

hey there - thanks for creating an issue for this.

unfortunately, this is non-actionable. we do not maintain the AUR package. as a former AUR package maintainer, i hosted my repositories on github to increase visibility and enable contributions like this, but it doesn't look like the current maintainer for that package does that, so the best way to reach them is via the comment feed on the package (where you're pulling this patch from), or via email directly (unless the maintainer has specified an alternate communication method).

i do maintain the git-bug package in nixpkgs, and that receives updates pretty immediately.

i have some undocumented plans to automate the package update for nixpkgs so that a patch is propagated out immediately upon release. once that's in place, i'd consider taking ownership of the AUR package if the current maintainer was open to that.
