Can we get more explanation for this? This isn't a version bump. This project was rewritten from scratch, the old sources are gone. The PKGBUILD was written from scratch, packagement solutions were upstreamed[1]. Upstream points specifically to this package[2]. Archlinux repo maintainer wasn't involved at all with those and there is no info if he's interested in maintaining the new v2 version.

It's got the same name, is written by the same author, and the versions begin at 2.0.0. Fwiw this is just a major version bump of the same package - it doesn't really matter what percentage of it has changed since the last version. Yes, that means the package in [community] is out-of-date, and no, your involvement with upstream doesn't matter. Regards, Rob
