milouse [1] filed a deletion request for boston-icon-theme [2]: The upstream work of this package is released only through OCS websites (gnome-look…), which prevent direct download. I first tried to work around that by using git tarball for the git repository but: - there is already another boston-icon-theme-git package which better do that - the upstream author say that there are differences between the git repository and the OCS tarball¹. And thus this package may mislead arch user, thinking they are using the package from OCS when in fact it only use the git version. Thus, until there is a viable solution to interact with OCS, this package should be removed in favor of its -git brother. Thank you very much ¹ https://github.com/heychrisd/Boston-Icons/wiki/Questions-and- answers#exist-differences-between-opendesktop-releases-and-github- repoclones [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/milouse/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/boston-icon-theme/
