Given that most of them haven't been updated in ~3 years, I'm tempted to orphan them, but none of them are flagged out-of-date. Can you explain exactly what you plan to do? What do you mean by "join them"? Regards, Xyne

Regards, Xyne By joining I mean that I combine the cupswrapper and lpr packages into one new package. You can see examples of that if you look at the brother-packages owned by "libernux"
Berno is doing a great job be refactoring all these old Brother packages. @Berno, Will you try to take over these dcp* packages and reupload them with proper? Some of them are already orphan, e.g. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dcp110c/ -- Kind regards, Damian Nowak StratusHost www.AtlasHost.eu

Can you upload the new packages? I will happily merge these old packages into them. You have been doing a great job cleaning up the cruft of all these brother packages so far. Lukas
