I'm the new maintainer of the package: wxpython https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wxpython-2.4.9.1/

This package should be renamed from "wxpython-2.4.9.1" to "wxpython-updates" since its the development version of wxpython and submitting a new package for each version would not be ideal.

Also, i mistakenly submitted a new package trying to update wxpython to a new version which should be deleted. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wxpython2.9.5.0/

Actually, there already is a wxpython in extra that does all this. It should be marked out of date, I would think.

No, the package in extra is the stable version, the AUR one is the unstable development version. IMO, it should be wxpython-devel to keep with the accepted naming scheme. Ronnie, you need to upload the new package to the AUR then a TU can merge the old package into it. They cannot rename a package.
