Hello people, I'm Kimiblock, the maintainer of wechat-uos-bwrap, writing to request Package Maintainer's action to solve the intentionally duplicated package on AUR. WeChat is a closed-source software developed by Tencent which is used by almost all people in China. In March 5, people in #archlinux-cn discovered that there is a testing version available and shortly after, it became a installable package for China's UOS. I've packaged wechat-uos-bwrap in 2024-03-05 23:37 (CST). 2 days after in 2024-03-07 09:18 (CST), AUR account leaeasy submitted wechat-beta-bwrap. If you look at the initial commit <https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=wechat-beta-bwrap&id=76c45b93c40583b635cf9f3d5f02a04d0caad495> of wechat-beta-bwrap, it was almost completely copied from wechat-uos-bwrap (other than a different way to extract the .deb), even the .desktop file. The only major thing they changed is wechat.sh, which sanbox function is removed. But wechat-uos-bwrap can read a environment variable "trashAppUnsafe=1" and disable its sandbox function. So I filed a merge request (#PRQ57379) to merge wechat-beta-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/> into wechat-uos-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-uos-bwrap/>. After that, one of the wechat-beta-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/> maintainer 7Ji <https://aur.archlinux.org/account/7Ji> submitted a new package called wechat-universal-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-universal-bwrap>, which is also a duplicate package of wechat-uos-bwrap. So, I'm thinking to merge all that duplicate packages and my wechat-uos-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-uos-bwrap/> into wechat-uos. Sadly, the original Maintainer DuckSoft disappeared (the last message he sent in #archlinux-cn is over 3 years ago). Therefore, I'm requesting Package Maintainers to merge wechat-beta-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/> and wechat-universal-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-universal-bwrap> and give Maintainer role to previous wechat-uos maintainer, sukanka <https://aur.archlinux.org/account/sukanka> so that this package can be updated. I'll merge wechat-uos-bwrap <https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-uos-bwrap/> into wechat-uos once sukanka finish updating this package and add the sandbox function. I've contacted sukanka via Matrix and he/she is willing to maintain this package. -- Sincerely, Kimiblock
