I think the patch in question has been reduced to only modifying the version 16 hours ago, before that it did a bit more than that[1]. But I guess, in the current state[2], it should be acceptable?

Hello
I'm the developer of NoiseTorch (https://github.com/lawl/NoiseTorch/). I faithfully believe that the package "noisetorch" in the ArchLinux User Repository ("AUR") (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/noisetorch/) violates my license (GPLv3).
I have the asked previous maintainer of this package to not apply patches or make it clear that this is a fork that's being conveyed. Several Arch Linux trusted users were also informed of this: https://github.com/lawl/NoiseTorch/issues/2#issuecomment-785262068
The "patches" you're talking about are those to apply the correct version for packaging? There's no way any reasonable person would find that violates the licensing.
