Re: [aur-general] Remove dunst-light-git from AUR

Hey, Thanks. I had recently changed my Hotmail account to Outlook, but forgot to change this in the AUR settings. I'll do this right away now. Thanks for deleting the package! Unia

Hello, Recently, I have uploaded a package (named dunst-light-git) to the AUR. Only afterwards I found out from the developer of Dunst (Knopwob) that the light version isn't maintained anymore and that soon, he is going to delete the relevant branch from his GitHub. He recommended me and other users to use the normal version instead. Because of this, I ask you to remove that package from AUR: it's no longer maintained and soon, the files will be removed from Github and the PKGBUILD is just useless. I had searched Google on how to remove an AUR package and came across two topics on the Arch boards that said I had to notify the maintainers on this mailing list. If this is not the correct way anymore, then please regard this email as not send. I do hope though that I am doing this in the correct way and that you will remove my package from the AUR. Thanks in advance, Jente

Sorry for late reply, but in the current systemd-related mess it's much more difficult to find emails.

You did it right, but I have two small suggestions for future requests. Include link to the package. Also it's better to use the same email as the email on AUR if you want to remove your package, it helps as an additional verification.

Anyway, I removed the dunst-light-git package.
