Does anyone know why LDC is stuck at version 1.13.0 in home-brew? LDC 1.14.0 was released two weeks ago, and the updates on Homebrew have always happened quite quickly in the past.

I'm guessing that no one got around updating the home brew formula and looking at the history of who did:

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pulls?utf8=✓&q=Ldc

It looks like the contributors changed often over time. Maybe the Homebrew contributor experience is pretty frustrating?

In any case, AFAICT everyone can submit a PR to update a package (have a  look at the existing PRs. They just change the hash and version number).

It is just boring ;)

Could this be built into some delivering process? I assume somewhere along publishing the link to the image on the website...

I took a stab at doing this, but ran into issues with homebrew. I have now resolved the issues, but in the meantime one of the other users updated the ldc formula to install 1.14.0. I should be able to do it for the next version of ldc.
