Possibility of cutting a release for downstream packagers? #45

Closed zmwangx closed 5 years ago

zmwangx commented 7 years ago

The latest release, 3.0.0, is from 2009, and this is the release packaged by packagers (Debian, Homebrew and MacPorts on macOS, etc). 175 commits have been added to master since then, with 19 new languages added:

augeas
bfpp
brainfuck
chaiscript
coffeescript
coq
forth
golang
jam
logtalk
modula2
modula3
nsis
oberon
prolog
puppet
rebol
rust
tex_dtx

In particular, CoffeeScript, Go and Rust are very widely used these days, but the packaged version is useless for all these languages.

Therefore, could you please consider cutting a release so that downstream packagers could pick up the (not-so-)recent improvements? Thanks.

This would be very great! The version 3.0.0 has a segfault problem on a large C++ codebase here. Perhaps just having the most recent version would fix it.

I got a Fedora version on the OBS, but that is just 3.0.0 as well.

We have been tagging new ohcount releases on Github. So I believe this can be closed now.
