Manual package flagging has been disabed in favour of automatic flagging based on Anitya.

If you want a package to be uptodate and want to inform the maintainer about the status of the package, please feel free to create a package mapping on Anitya.
Ones the mapping is made it should automatically send an email to the maintainer whenever a new version is available.

The documention on how to create a project mapping for Alpine Linux refer to the release monitoring documentation.

In short here are roughly the steps to create a mapping for a project.

• Create an Fedora account and login (or use openid)
• Open all projects and search for the project you want to map
• Add a new distribution mapping with the name within Alpine Linux

In case you need to mention something specifcally to the maintainer please send them an email.
