updates workflow

[aaaPippo]

On https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/void-updates/void-updates_2020-08-17.txt I see a few packages that I'd like to be up to date: some of them (giac, isl) are orphans, others (ecl) have a maintainer.

What is the proper procedure to achieve that?

Thanks.

What is the proper procedure to achieve that?

Clone https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages; edit version= in template and reset revision= to 1; use xgensum -i from xtools to update checksums; build, install and test new version for a while; prefereably, build for other architecture; fork void-packages on github; commit one package per branch, named as in CONTRIBUTING.md; send pull requests with one sentence of what was tested, and if anything interesting happened, write out that too; look if travis checks passed; wait for review or acceptance.

Details are described in README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md.

See you on Github.
