Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I did not realize that it was an issue to have a duplicate package in the AUR, and clearly see now that I should not. I guess the action of deleting the package makes more sense so I apologize for any confusion and unnecessary complaint. I do think if a package in an official repo is not getting updated that it makes sense to allow one in the AUR, but that would be a separate proposal.
Please note, I also maintain a separate Skaffold package (skaffold-bin) since at times new updates were not getting pushed for a month or more. Feel free to delete that as well.
Hi,
I am the skaffold maintainer. Are you sure about this? I am very confident that I have updated skaffold over the last months within 24 hours. Are you maybe on an old mirror or do you speak about longer ago?
Some general advice: Patches are always welcome. Many package maintainers (including me) have their own PKGBUILD mirror on Github. For example: https://github.com/shibumi/pkgbuilds
Feel free to open a PR against this repository.

We can see here [0] that updates for the official skaffold package happen fairly often so I don't really see where the frustration about the packaging delay is coming from. [0] https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/commits/packages/skaffold/tr...
