[aur-requests] [PRQ#18886] Deletion Request for ib-controller
benalexau [1] filed a deletion request for ib-controller [2]: The "ib-controller" AUR package no longer works. It has been entirely replaced by the "ibc" AUR package. The community has been informed of this via a pinned comment on the "ib-controller" package since April 2019. The background to this change was the upstream software for "ib- controller" [1] is no longer maintained. As shown at [1] the last commit was January 2018. Furthermore the principal upstream developer of "ib-controller" publicly declared in April 2019 that he will now focuses his work entirely on the replacement "ibc" project [2]. The latter is packaged in the "ibc" AUR package. As such removal of the "ib-controller" AUR package does not remove any working or maintained software from the community, but helps community members more easily find the working, maintained successor package (as they don't need to consult the pinned comment for background).
