xiota [1] filed an orphan request for motivewave [2]: Request to orphan for poor maintainership and refusal or fix defects that were recently introduced into the package. `motivewave` was previously broken for over four months, when 6.7.0 was released on 2023-04-17 (over four months), until the package was updated on 2023-08-25. This can be confirmed by reviewing the [commit log](https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/log/?h=motivewave). Build log showing the broken state of the package is available [motivewave.log](https://github.com/chaotic- aur/packages/files/12443975/motivewave.log). The relevant error is: ``` ==> Validating source files with sha512sums... motivewave-6.6.15.deb ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! ``` The package was updated after the maintainer received an orphan request notification. Recently, the maintainer introduced a `chmod` syntax error in [61d4efc](https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=motivewave&id=61d4efc5898c57a8ab286e23fc393569b9a99a6), and manually edited `.SRCINFO` [2941953](https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=motivewave&id=2941953be7ac30148d4b4ad1203f79f5166dc189 ), [fe662296](https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=motivewave&id=fe6622969cc4f3951a61b84660a556cbb0bb2ab5 ). The maintainer has been notified multiple times of the above issues, but has refused to fix them. As a result, the package was dropped from chaotic-aur. Even though the package is no longer in chaotic- aur, it should still be fixed, and I posted comments and flagged the package to encourage the maintainer fix it. The maintainer has still refused. `motivewave` needs a maintainer who will keep the package up to date, will not introduce syntax errors, and will not manually edit `.SRCINFO` for unknown purpose. Further, the maintainer of `motivewave` has been verbally abusive and spammed the comments of `motivewave`, `motivewave-latest-bin`, and chaotic-aur github. He was asked to stop multiple times, but still writes personal attacks when he decides to reply to attempts to notify him of package defects.
