  • archlinux-proaudio

    Actively maintained binary package repo for Arch Linux of free and open source pro-audio software.

    • If you are interested in surgext in the repositories, feel free to provide it in the AUR as a start and maybe also reach out to osam-cologne/archlinux-proaudio who are working on the preparation of several packages for inclusion. Other recommended resources are #archlinux-proaudio on libera.chat and the arch-proaudio mailing list.

  • surge

    Synthesizer plug-in (previously released as Vember Audio Surge)

    • The surge package is in fact not out-of-date. Version 1.9.0 is the last/latest version of surge. On a somewhat similar post I answered with this which might fit your question to some extent as well.

  • InfluxDB

  • svntogit-community

    Discontinued Automatic import of svn 'community' repo (read-only mirror)

    • The surgext releases that follow surge's last release are (according to upstream) a rewrite and should be considered a new piece of software (yet they live in the same code repository :S). If you have a look at the PKGBUILD for surge, you will see, that it requires a few fixes to even start dealing with reproducibility etc. which means that this is usually something requiring more time to get right as a package, which would likely also be the case with its successor. Additionally, the replacement scenario is kind of unclear (surgext is not compatible with surge, yet it is its direct successor).

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
