[aur-general] Rename my AUR package
Hi, I maintain lugaru-hd-opensource ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37145 ) and I first used the initial source package provided by Wolfire, but now I'm using the a hg branch clone (the default package don't work) so I would like to have it renamed to reflect the fact that is it using Mercurial. Sometjing like lugaruhd-hg. Could someone do this ? Or should I reupload it under this new name and you have to erase the old one ? Thanks in advance, Julroy67

aur doesn't support renaming. the only way is to submit a new package that have the new pkgname and then ask here to delete the bad one. -- Ionut

AUR packages can't be renamed, so you'd have to upload a new package.
Ahww that was fast :) Ok, so I uploaded it ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37158 ), I think you can delete the old package. Thanks to all.

I believe the correct way is to upload a new package with the correct name and then have the old one deleted by posting here about it. -- Ape <Lauri Niskanen>
