MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libldap25 [2]: The pkgname does not follow Arch package guidelines calling for attaching only the major version number as a suffix. This builds libldap v2.5, not version twenty-five. Please kindly resubmit this as 'libldap-2.5'. Also please remove provides=libldap. AURweb and its RPC webcall interface doesn't support versioned lookup, and doesn't serve that metadata, so AUR helpers cannot choose dependencies based on AUR provides version. Also this is not a drop-in replacement for repo's libldap. Having this with provides=libldap installed would allow users to remove 'libldap' and break existing packages that rely on the latest SO version of the library, available in repo.
