I just disowned a package in the AUR, and then I received the following automatic email:
Begin forwarded message:
From: notify@aur.archlinux.org <mailto:notify@aur.archlinux.org> Subject: AUR Ownership Notification for rcm Date: 21 January 2017 22:07:54 GMT-2 To: < <mailto:tbperrotta@gmail.com>my email address> Reply-To: noreply@aur.archlinux.org <mailto:noreply@aur.archlinux.org>
The package rcm [1] was disowned by serialoverflow [2].
[1] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/rcm/ <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/rcm/> [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/serialoverflow/ <https://aur.archlinux.org/account/serialoverflow/>
I want to stress this part out: The package rcm [1] was disowned by serialoverflow [2]. User `serialoverflow` was the only co-maintainer of the `rcm` package; and now, he is the current maintainer, since I have disowned the package. The aforementioned message is wrong, because I was the one who disowned the package, not its former co-maintainer. In other words: * Package X has Y as its maintainer and Z as its co-maintainer. * Y, the maintainer, disowns the package. * AUR sends an email stating that Z, not Y, disowned the package. This is a bug. - Thiago
