[aur-general] Remove some xf86-video-intel-* packages
1. According to the comments, xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git2 is just a duplicate of xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git. It has been orphaned. The only difference in PKGBUILDs (apart from the package name) is that xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git2 has 2 extra makedependencies: git and xorg-util-macros. At least git shold be added to the makedepends (as pointed out in the comments of https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git/ by klusark - the user who uploaded xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git2 - but I think xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git2 should be removed. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git2/ 2. Are we OK with a package like https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86-video-intel-conf-sna/ that provides only a 5-line config: Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "sna" EndSection It's an orphan with no votes and no comments.

I removed the -git2 package. Can you email the maintainer of the -git package and ask them to include the dependencies?
2. Are we OK with a package like https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86-video-intel-conf-sna/ that provides only a 5-line config:
SNA is now the default, so I removed this. I think this kind of thing can be useful, but in this case it wasn't :).
