Time to update source-highlight package?

[denials]

Migrated over to Fedora 13 after several years on Ubuntu (and Gentoo before that, and Mandrake before that).

I just noticed that one of my articles-in-progress is not generating quality output because the current source-highlight package is 2.10, which dates back to July 2008 (ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/src-highlite/), but the current release is 3.1.3 from January 2010. 3.1.3 adds source highlighting support for bash, amongst other things, which my asciidoc-based article had been successfully using in Ubuntu.

So... what are the chances of getting an updated source-highlight package into Fedora? I may compile from source to solve my problem for the moment, but an updated package would be generally useful IMHO.

Replying to myself, source-highlight 3.1.3 compiles fine on Fedora 13, as long as you point it at the right directory for the Boost libraries; its autoconf script doesn't account for /usr/lib64. So:

./configure --with--boost-libdir=/usr/lib64 && make && make install

will do the trick nicely.

We're did you find the package? I read your post and looked around (admittedly didn't look too hard) but all I found was 2.10.

Thanks Rahul.

I have added a spec patch and the rpmlint output for the new spec to the Br.
