Are you suggesting that every AUR package that is up to date with master where there is a -git package should be removed?

“If it is currently maintained, changes can be submitted in a comment for the maintainer's attention. If it is unmaintained or the maintainer is unresponsive, the package can be adopted and updated as required. Do not create duplicate packages.“
It’s not a duplicate, it’s the pegged non-git package which uses a specific commit.
The package was merged because I removed myself from the mailing list and didn’t reply stating that the issues were resolved.
Why did you merge instead of suggesting changes?
And why do you want the package deleted so urgently?

It is still a duplicate. There are no releases upstream. What's the point of having a non git version if it's just going to follow the latest git commit anyway?
Yes this matter was resolved. The package was merged. That is why anbox-modules-dkms should not exist.

Hey eNV25,
Just because the non-git and git packages are on the same commit id does not mean the whole package should be wiped and its changelog, comments, AUR git history, and any other informative discussion should be deleted.
Once master is updated, the non-git will be out of date. That's what Out of Date is for.
# non-git
# git
source=("git+$url#branch=master")
As you know your original Merge Request reasons were already addressed.
- Removed the build function from previous 2017 maintainer
- Removed linux-headers from previous 2017 maintainer
- Removed /usr/lib/modules-load.d/ from previous 2017 maintainer
I didn't create the original pkgbuild, I simply revived it as-is, including it's git history for transparency. I didn't write the original PKGBUILD. I re-uploaded it with accurate git history so that anyone else can actually see the commit history of the package:
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/log/?h=anbox-modules-dkms
Given you are well aware I was actively maintaining the package, why would you submit a merge request instead of emailing me or submit a pull request?
I really don't understand your sudden urgency to remove the package from the AUR.
Why did you merge instead of suggesting changes?
And why do you want the package deleted so urgently?

This is a false deletion request, the maintainer knows this is a correct non-git dkms PKGBUILD
I don't think so.
I don’t we know what the current maintainer is trying to achieve here but the two packages are distinct.
1) I personally maintain the fork with the GitHub user
fine
2) I had already made env25 a co maintainer
And I made you a co-maintainer for anbox-modules-dkms-git
3) I am on the WayDroid dev team
It's not relevant who you are
2) this fork was created by myself and Choff
fine
3) the non-git is perfectly fine now
No it's not it's a duplicate of anbox-modules-dkms-git
4) eNV25 has already merged requested this, in a rush, for no apparent reason.
The TU ainola merged this. I submitted the request.
Please reject this merge & deletion request for the following reasons:
Please don't reject this deletion request.
And if possible please merge back the non-git repo comment history as you can clearly see
fine

eNV25 [1] filed a deletion request for anbox-modules-dkms [2]:
This package is a duplicate of anbox-modules-dkms-git.
I previously submitted a merge request from anbox-modules-dkms to
anbox-modules-dkms-git.
I maintain anbox-modules-dkms-git.
