AUR/avogadroapp already has provides=avogadro2. The project itself most likely had a good reason to choose "avogadroapp" as the repo name - maybe they wanted to go for a future-proof designation, in case they later reach Avogadro 3 and higher main versions. The avogadro2 package looks like an unfriendly takeover attempt from the longer-existing AUR/avogadroapp. On 20 June 2023 02:42:35 GMT+02:00, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote:

The latter has been longer on AUR, since 2020, this one was uploaded in 2022.
The earlier package is more proper because the name of the source repo itself is avogadroapp.
Whereas "Avogadro 2" is the umbrella name of the whole project, consisting of separate repositories for the library and the application.
Both packages are up-to-date (v1.97.0).
This package has 0 votes and only 1 user comment, complaining about a build error.
There are no dependent packages relying on this name.
