[PRQ#57379] Merge Request for wechat-beta-bwrap
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

Kimiblock [1] filed a request to merge wechat-beta-bwrap [2] into wechat-uos-bwrap [3]: This package is basically wechat-uos-bwrap, with no sandboxing which means this proprietary app can obtain any system data or user data The reason why wechat-uos-bwrap doesn’t come with beta in name is the fact that the app doesn’t recognize itself as a beta [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Kimiblock/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-uos-bwrap/

[PRQ#57762] Merge Request for wechat-beta-bwrap
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

7Ji [1] filed a request to merge wechat-beta-bwrap [2] into wechat- universal-bwrap [3]: The native Linux client `Wechat (Beta)` was released as `Wechat (Universal)` on the Uniontech OS appstore officially [a], being a distinct package (`com.tencent.wechat`) from the previous `wechat-uos` package (`com.tencent.weixin`, available on AUR as `wechat-uos`[b] and `wechat-uos-bwrap`[c]). As this is official, having `beta` in the name does not make sense any more. To make this distinct from the previous package that's not built natively for Linux, I've created a new PKGBUILD `wechat-universal- bwrap`, please merge the `-beta` into `-universal`. [a]: https://bbs.chinauos.com/zh/post/17786 [b]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wechat-uos [c]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wechat-uos-bwrap [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/7Ji/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-universal-bwrap/

Kimiblock [1] filed a request to merge wechat-universal-bwrap [2] into wechat-uos-bwrap [3]: Duplicated package (see https://lists.archlinux.org/hyperkitty/list/aur- general(a)lists.archlinux.org/thread/T4I2ZYPOPHTIKYJTUSB7CMHSNA6BHIZ7/ for more details) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Kimiblock/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-universal-bwrap/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-uos-bwrap/

[PRQ#60974] Deletion Request for wechat-uos-bwrap
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

7Ji [1] filed a deletion request for wechat-uos-bwrap [2]: The upstream name is Wechat (Universal), and it's released onto both the UOS app store and Kylin OS app store with such name. As its official usage is not limited to UOS it shall not bear uos in its name. As it also uses a mixed tech stack and -[GUI framework] suffix is conventionally used for GUI split package (e.g. transmission-qt is the GUI part of tranmission PKGBUILD) it shall also not bear qt in its name. There're already a lot of packging using wechat-universal as the name base, examples on AUR include -universal-privileged and -universal (without suffix) by lihe07 and -appimage by yifwon; examles outside AUR include -universal-flatpak ( https://github.com/web1n/wechat- universal-flatpak ) by web1n. For a complete history about official WeChat builds and why wechat- universal was chosen, please check the previous reply I made to the related aur-general thread: https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/aur- general(a)lists.archlinux.org/message/CFBKZH23X2ZP4VWEXR5HU4FL3ADAIQNL/ . About why deletion instead of merge: as the maintainer of -universal- bwrap and the co-maintainer of -beta-bwrap, I don't want unrelated comments in the history of -universal, neither its votes. While -beta- bwrap was created by leaeasy initially as a fork of -uos-bwrap, the packaging went a different way after I joined to help improving it and it became its own thing, their history is completely different as they had completely different user bases from day 1, and -universal-bwrap, created as a workaround for the AUR limitation that PKGBUILD could not be renamed (PRQ#57762 to merge -beta-bwrap to -universal-bwrap was filed as soon as I pushed the PKGBUILD), would want no history from -uos-bwrap.
