hanker [1] filed an orphan request for gummy-git [2]: Similar to the main gummy package, the git package hasn't been updated in ages and there has not been any response from the maintainer after trying to contact him. I would like to have ownership of this package, as well as the main gummy package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/hanker/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gummy-git/

[PRQ#54247] Merge Request for pm-utils-debian
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Mar '24

04 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge pm-utils-debian [2] into pm- utils [3]: There's no benefit in keeping the 'debian' variant package: - 'debian' one: orphan since years - 'pm-utils' has a maintaner. - no significantly difference. - 'pm-utils' is a superset (w/ additional scripts, likely from a contrib fork for Arch/Manjaro). - 'pm-utils-debian' needs the separate 'pm-quirks' addon pkg from 2010; 'pm-utils' already has those metadata files. 'pm-utils-debian' was created in 2012 and updated only once, in 2021, with +1 minor Debian refinement patch. 'pm-utils' is newer: from 2017, and already hosts similar patches that the debian one sources from the Debian servers. Overall, 'pm-utils' is the superior package. It offers nothing less, only more. And no build on AUR requires the 'debian' variant (and never seem to have).
