@tailinchu: For the reason mentioned by Det above, please do not re-upload this package.
tailinchu, I'm going to quote your email to me below. However, if you would register on the list you would be able to reply directly to the list. (That would make things easier to follow.)

i dont understand why he is really obsessed about this. he could simply ignore this package if he chooses to. he could have his own reason, but i have mine too.
We try to keep the AUR from becoming too confusing. One way this can be done is by discouraging the creation of very similar packages and/or removing obsolete packages. Det is suggesting that you can have a gconf-free system by installing the no-gconf package (also maintained by you). Therefore, *-no-gconf packages are redundant. Saying that you have a reason to upload this package without being more specific isn't enough, considering the package has been deleted 3 times already. (Please try to respond to the list, so I don't act as a messenger. :) )
