[…] Like I said, I flagged the "lib32-sdl2-hg" package out of date over half a year ago, no one did anything with it, and that package was also the same maintainer as "sdl2-hg".
I never received a mail from you and the last and only out-of-date message I received before this was "PKGBUILD needs updated". Not really helpful in my opinion. Also, simply overwriting my PKGBUILD with the one from the repository (like you suggested) does not work. Anyway, since you really want to maintain it, I orphaned it now. So, after the ban is lifted, you may do as you please.
Meaning, any packages that person maintains technically, is no longer maintained.
While I do not think this is true, because I still have updated others in the meanwhile, maybe is a good time to send some orphan requests, so I can get rid of them. Btw. I have made changes to, like, 400 PKGBUILDs in the AUR over the last 8 years, I test my packages in clean chroots and (lib32-)sdl2-hg have always built there fine. I may not be the best maintainer, but there are certainly worse.
On account for all the other reasons mentioned previously, especially "Teteros" commenting, and no response for over two weeks.
I still believe selecting the wrong branch was either a user or server configuration issue, since my test showed it cloned the correct branch here. Anyway, yes, I did not react on that. I see you have fixed that now as well (applying the suggested change by Teteros).
I had like 10 cups of coffee today, and its almost 7AM here. I really have nothing against any of you, and have no hard feelings. Everything is all good. I'm going to go lay down.
No hard feelings here as well. Just a friendly advice: There may be times where you cannot (or do not want to) correspond to every request made on every platform where you are active. For me it was this time that we were in the middle of release preparations of a project I am maintaining on GitHub, so there was little time to spend on AUR. It may happen to you in the future and maybe someone wants to take over one of your packages then. ;) best regards, carstene1ns
