[PRQ#47724] Deletion Request for promtail-bin
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for promtail-bin [2]: Bogus package. Description and source is not for promtail, but for loki, and it is not using a binary build as source, but the git repo main branch of loki. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/promtail-bin/
Original Package promtail is flagged out of date. I absolutely agree that this package is a dublicate of the original one in the extra repository. But since the original package doesn't get updated I've created my own package to keep promtail updated. Regards Thorsten Am Donnerstag, 21.

Both of you are incorrect. It is not loki, it's promtail (although from the same source repo) and it is not a duplicate of the repo package because it builds from git not a release version. The correct reason to delete this package is violation of VCS guidelines[2]: it must be named promtail-git. - éclairevoyant [2]: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#Package_naming
Request #47724 has been Rejected by MarsSeed [1]: Because of the extreme high number of pending requests, I am deferring this for resubmission later. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/
