AUR TUs are kinda busy and they don't delete things immediately. I'm not sure why they want you to remove the conflicts before it is deleted but that's not why xiota accused you of incompetence either.

Also, please include aur-general in your replies. If your email client has a "reply to list" button use that; if not try using a "reply all" button.

I want to maintain the package.
motivewave-latest-bin was supposed to be deleted yesterday.

If that package is removed then motivewave wouldn’t have any conflicting packages.

motivewave has motivewave-latest-bin listed as conflicts (which is accurate)

And motivewave-latest-bin has motivewave listed as conflicts (which is accurate)

So today Xiota accused me of incompetence, motivewave indeed conflicts with motivewave-latest-bin.

Not following Xiota commands  step by step does not make me incompetent.

Xiota claims the motivewave-latest-bin package will be deleted, but only after I remove motivewave-latest-bin as a conflict.


I wonder what’s the interest in me removing motivewave-latest-bin first, and why does he even cares about that.

According to 
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#conflicts

These packages are in conflict.
They have the exact same source.

I don't see why you're that infuriated. xiota is indeed a bit combative with language but save for removing `conflicts` their suggestions all look good.  Simply adding the "no same owner" removes the need for all that find chmod and chown stuff and just put the conflicting packing name under "conflicts", no need to make a new variable.

You can't accuse a suggestion of being wrong if you don't implement it completely and you already did implement the dynamic URL in the pkgbuild right; why are you still suggesting that implementing it breaks the package? It already works albeit suboptimally because the no-same-owner stuff hasn't been implemented.

You do not have to maintain this package. Nobody is forcing you to go back from church or a funeral. Your email seems like you're nitpicking their admittingly combative language, and I don't see any nitpicks in the line-by-line review. "Code review" has no negative connotations.

Here are some of the comments, it's like

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/motivewave#comment-932245

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

Then I got re-uploaded, and within hours he re-deleted me again.
He also blocked me from their Git.

Then he moved again to AUR motivewave to team up and the comments started again.

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.

This is in the git and shows how their suggestions actually broke the package.
I created my custom variable

but the nit picking has not continued.

Calling a person non competent, rude, rude, rude.
Especially when today the issue has been resolved.

Here is how the package broke because code review.
