Why you merge wechat-bin into this shit ? I believe you are violating the EULA of UOS app store. Delete this package immediately or you will have legal issue.
[1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/crab2313/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat/ The deletion request facility is not the comment section, and not a private grievance outlet.
Please submit a constructive and well-reasoned feedback as a comment on the AURweb page of this package. I do not think this PKGBUILD (installer recipe) violates any EULA. Vague opinions are not legal arguments. This package is named well in accordance of all AUR guidelines, whereas 'wechat-bin' is not. Upstream is closed-source, so the package should be named 'wechat'. Also, the maintainer of AUR/wechat is actually responsive to user feedback, and has taken steps to address previous objections of forcing this to use bubblewrap sandbox. Now that is made optional, so users can choose whether to use it with or without bwrap.
