Hello, Firstly please do not make multiple threads for the same problem (or similar) it makes it harder for people to reply :) Again I can't particularly help but I still want to try to give some advice.
Xiota also manages chaotic AUR, so he created an 'issue' where two packages wouldn't be able to exist, so he deleted motivewave and created motivewave-latest-bin
Chaotic AUR is an unofficial project, I believe it is managed by a bunch of university students. They have no authority over the AUR, nor do you need to answer to their demands. Just because Chaotic AUR is VERY popular (I think its the most popular unofficial repository due to the convenience), doesn't mean they matter or your say means any less than theirs.
I would like to know what the rules are, today at Labor Day 3 AM the change requests arrive again, yesterday I had to leave church to come home and do more changes Test the package, was working. I don't want to be forced to use variables or have a permanent code reviewer. Be called incompetent or imply I am dumb and need help.
You do not need to give up your life to contribute to AUR! As for the rules this is all available by your best friend when it comes to Arch Linux, the ArchWiki :P https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AUR_submission_guidelines#Requests If a package is high use, it is a good idea to give others co-maintainer so they can also contribute, but the important thing is communication. Now to cover my own arse now, I will point out the following: Muflone, one of the users you were arguing with is a staff member: https://archlinux.org/people/trusted-users/#muflone You have ignored their authority, and continued doing what they told you not to, that is why you are in trouble. According to what Muflone has said, you have breached the Code of Conduct. Advice: - Calm down about the situation and think rationally - Try to contact Muflone directly, their contact details can be found here: https://archlinux.org/people/trusted-users/#muflone Talk it out with Muflone and try to explain your point, and apologise of course for breaking the rules. - Re-read the code of conduct https://terms.archlinux.org/docs/code-of-conduct/ For any staff member who wants to accuse me of "playing mod", I am simply trying to be supportive. I can relate to this situation a ton, Xavier seems to have been slammed and I am sure nobody wants to be in that situation either. Also Xavier it appears you have used the comment section of the package as a running commentary, remember people get emailed every message, it is spam and it is incredibly annoying, just as a heads up :) This was pointed out to you: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/motivewave?O=20#comment-932111 And again: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/motivewave?O=10#comment-932151 (Muflone also pointed out that you do not need to rush this!) And again: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/motivewave?O=10#comment-932208 Imagine how many emails people following the package got in the period of 24 hours? Now you see why Muflone was telling you to stop. At this point if you are struggling feel free to ask for PKGBUILD review in aur-general mailing list, people will give you heads up and advice on improving the package, sorta like peer reviewing codebases. In conclusion, your issue is that you didn't listen to Muflone. For future reference, #archlinux-aur is always willing to help support you with fixing packages, and you can message much more rapid there. I wish you luck, best thing you can do is calmly try to explain your point of view to a moderator, instead of escalating the situation into a flame war, which is against the CoC. I would offer to help you with the PKGBUILD, but it seems like there is enough people slamming you with demands to change x, y and z, so best I not overwhelm you anymore :D PS, little tip on "how to not get in trouble with the staff", there is a list of trusted users (package maintainers): https://archlinux.org/people/trusted-users/ Simply search their username, or real name and you can find everything you need to know, along with how to contact them. Hope some of the advice helped in some way :) Take care, -- Polarian GPG signature: 0770E5312238C760 Website: https://polarian.dev JID/XMPP: polarian@icebound.dev
