Hi Bruno, Thanks a lot for confirming that I didn't receive Orphaning email! I did receive the comment. I actually checked the pull request a little, but decided not to reply because I didn't want to be negative. I totally believe the current maintainer has a better format of PKGBUILD (well, except his pkgver mistake). Now let me comment a few things on SGE. In the SGE package comment. 1, The current maintainer blamed me "连pkgver都填错这个真的是有点不可容忍了". Google translation: "It’s really intolerable that even pkgver was filled in wrong." Now it turned out that the current maintainer made the mistake..... 2, He also said "通过.install在post install阶段装了一大堆包管理器没有接管的文件", Google translation "A lot of files that the package manager did not take over were installed in the post install stage through .install". This could be a disaster if somebody want to upgrade SGE by uninstall and re-install. SGE has been a very special software because it needs some post installation to let user specify a lot of host/jobs/queue configuration. Thus all files are put under /opt/sge for the legacy reason.

2, Force an AUR package maintainer to join AUR-general, or send every notification to the package maintainer, as I never received any email notification about orphaning SGE.
I’m not commenting on everything else here, but regarding this point: subscription to aur-general is not required, and every notifications are sent to the package maintainer… or at least should be, because a bug introduced some months ago broke that (see https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/aurweb/-/merge_requests/6).
So indeed you did not receive the Orphaning requests notifications. But you did receive comments on the AUR page, and you did receive the emails to which you responded and that told you to *stop top-posting*.
