Hey, I've recently cleaned up the big pile of skype4pidgin packages in the AUR. Of the previous maintainers I could contact, they have orphaned the packages and I have taken them up prior to deletion/merging or have agreed to the merge. The maintainer for skype4pidgin-svn-dbus has not responded to my any attempts to sort out these packages so far (this was only around 10 days ago however. I'm not sure if that means this will still need to wait the full 14 days to be able to merge these or not though) Anyway, as a result, can someone please merge the following: skype4empathy-svn [1] -> skype4pidgin-svn [3] skype4pidgin-svn-dbus [2] -> skype4pidgin-svn [3] skype4empathy [4] -> skype4pidgin [6] skype4finch [5] -> skype4pidgin [6] [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skype4empathy-svn/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skype4pidgin-svn-dbus/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skype4pidgin-svn/ [4] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skype4empathy/ [5] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skype4finch/ [6] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skype4pidgin/ Regards, Justin Dray E: justin@dray.be M: 0433348284

I'm the maintainer of skype4pidgin-svn-dbus, you last mail was from 3 days ago and you wrote: "Hi again everyone, If there is no response in the next 14 days regarding this stuff, I'll ask for orphanage on the packages in question so that I can fix it up." 3 days are NOT 14 days... -- Timothy M.

No, but the original email asking about cleaning them up was 10 days ago.
Which the other maintainers responded to. I also said this in my original
email to the AUR mailing list: " (this was only around 10 days ago however.
I'm not sure if that means this will still need to wait the full 14 days to
be able to merge these or not though)". I thought leaving it up to a TU to
decide would be enough? If you want the packages you can have ownership of
them, I just found it frustrating to have to read 7 pkgbuilds to figure out
which one actually worked, when it should have been 2 packages.

Usually merge requests do not require contact with the current package maintainer. And of course, they do not require waiting for reply two weeks. But I think that in the some cases, contact with the current maintainer before sending a request is a good practice, since he spent his own time to maintain this. -- С уважением, Е.Алексеев.
