Hello,
I created a package for OCaml-PCRE, and have not seen that it already exists on AUR (but in a slightly older version).
There is this one:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=52452
And my new one: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=55215
Now there are two packages for the same stuff...
Any idea how to handle it?
Ciao, Oliver
Send message to maintainer with updated PKGBUILD (and/or orphan request), post it also in comments. If after 2 weeks you won't get any answer, send to aur-general orphan request. For now, I'm deleting your package.
"ocaml-pcre" [1] has been updated to the latest version (bobry, you're an awesome maintainer ;) )
Bartłomiej, I think you can indeed delete "pcre-ocaml" [2]. Don't be afraid of the packages that depend on it, they are mostly old and unmaintained (the pcre package had been renamed from "pcre-ocaml" to "ocaml-pcre" a while ago in order to match Arch's OCaml guidelines)
[1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=52452 [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=55215 [...]
Why does in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=52452 the dependency is ocaml-pcre>=4.5 if the package provides ocaml-pcre? Can that package not be installed, if it not already is installed? Ciao, Oliver
