Arch linux package out of date #439

Hello, I have been using this package in Manjaro. However, I noticed the code they are distributing does not match the last version available in the repo here.
Although, the version reported by create_ap --version is 0.4.6, the help menu has some options missing, i.e.: --no-dnsmasq
I contacted the package maintainer there but they need an updated release to base their new package on.
So I was wondering, are there any plans for a next release soon?
Also, I have already installed from source but an updated package may be helpful for someone else.
Thanks

Pamac should have AUR support, so you can also use create_ap-git, which pulls the master branch and builds it for you. But yeah, an updated release would be appreciated.

I've noticed that create_ap doesn't function well on Arch linux as same as on Manjaro.
I'm connected to AP but the connection is very very very slow.
I can't even tweet.

Do you experience better performance on other distros? Create_ap is pretty much just a wrapper script for the tools mentioned in the README, so the problem could also be any of those programs. It's likely that your access point interferes with other networks in the area though, I suggest trying a different channel using -c <channel>with a channel between 2 and 14 (1 is the default, and that doesn't seem to work for you). You might try switching to 5 GHz as well if your devices support that. If your problem persists, I'd suggest creating a separate issue for that.
