Giovanni, I hate to have to point fingers here, but before making such a change to somebody else's package, it should be discussed here. Now we have split the big package into many small ones - that's okay. But you neither provided a reasonable upgrade path, without any conflicts to the old package and so on. Such problems have to be considered before pushing such a package to extra, not after. It's completely MY fault. Sorry, I will fix packages tomorrow morning (0.30am here). Sorry again.

Hello, i think there still is an issue with the split packages of thunderbird-spell-... There is for each languale a package with <countrycode>_<COUNTRYCODE> and <countrycode>_<countrycode> showing up on https://dev.archlinux.org/packages/. So if someone does a pacman -S thunderbird-spell-de_DE, she will still get a not working release 2.0.0.23-2. Regards Stefan

Yeah and I get error emails every time someone visits that page, so thanks for the spam :) Let me know which ones are the keepers and I'll delete the others from the DB so I stop getting mails

Yeah, I think this is a goof in the backend scripts somewhere. Looks like all the capitalized versions are -2 and the lowercase are -3, correct?

Ok this had to be the case change that causes issues. de-ch vs de-CH. Apparently the capitalized versions (pkgrel=2) were never removed and I have no idea why, they're not in any DB. I cleaned them up manually, and everything should fix itself, I believe

This policy has always been there, no? Besides: 1. This is something that "namcap PKGBUILD" would have picked up. 2. In vim (with syntax enabled for PKGBUILD), upper case in pkgname is highlighted as an error (underlined red in my case). As Jan wrote a few days ago, we have tools, use them :) Perhaps we should automate such checks in commitpkg, no? F

You can do this, FYI, you don't need special permissions to remove files from /srv/ftp. Just be careful :)
