Re: [aur-general] Duplicate yt-dlp packages

Hello,

This package was my first package ever created, and I used a script to do it, but have been informed the convention is not respected (python- should apparently be for libraries). Anyway, my package needs to disappear. Should I delete it myself ? What exactly is the correct process ?

Hi everyone,

I hope you are having a good weekend!

There are several duplicate packages for yt-dlp[1] available on the AUR. There are two regular packages (yt-dlp and youtube-dlp), as well as two Git packages (yt-dlp-git and python-yt-dlp-git). I think we should keep yt-dlp and yt-dlp-git, because they are the most popular, but I wanted to ask before creating any deletion requests.

I have CC'd the maintainers of the aforementioned packages.

Thanks, Maxwell

I'm not sure what the process of deleting packages looks like. One of the Trusted Users can chime in on that. Please make sure that you reply to the entire mailing list and not just me. I think you have to subscribe[1] to the mailing list before posting. Thanks, Maxwell [1]: https://lists.archlinux.org/listinfo/aur-general -- Maxwell G Pronouns: He/Him/His gotmax@e.email
