[PRQ#40550] Deletion Request for mesa-panfork-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '23

09 Mar '23

haxie [1] filed a deletion request for mesa-panfork-git [2]: the "mesa-panfork" creator violates the Arch CoC, and has been banned from the upstream multiple times. Additionally, Arch has a long-standing (unwritten?) policy of respecting upstream's wishes, which in this case is Mesa, who have made it clear that the fork is considered to be hostile, and will never be merged upstream.

[PRQ#40425] Deletion Request for mesa-panfork-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Mar '23

08 Mar '23

1ace [1] filed a deletion request for mesa-panfork-git [2]: panfork is a hostile fork of Mesa created for the sole purpose of making a repeated abuser look legitimate against their victim and against the upstream Mesa community who banned him twice (we gave him a second chance after a few months as he pretended to have understood that his behaviour was unacceptable, but he started again soon after). See the discussion at https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4476 which is where I learned that someone packaged his fork on the AUR, giving implicit legitimacy to this behaviour, although I expect the packager wasn't aware of the reason the fork exists and didn't think to check. Please delete this package group, and if there is such a feature, please block `*panfork*` packages in the future. Thanks :) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/1ace/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/mesa-panfork-git/
