So someone uploaded a copy of my PKGBUILD for [1]libpng12 with the only changes being a name change (to get it into AUR) and marked himself as maintainer and made me a contributor. Then he tells people to try his 100% copy PKGBUILD on the comments O_o. Please kill [2]libpng12-working [1]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33795 [2]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=51855
