Hi list, here is our conversation with Nate Ijams that was in fact private because we didn't know that this list is now members-only. вт, 26 квіт. 2022 р. о 17:31 Yurii Kolesnykov пише:

Thank you for clarification, Nate, I forgot about that.

But nevertheless, this package is based on a source code of a project, that once started as replacement of an official package of that time, but it was eventually deprecated as a dead end, which may be seen by this commit[0]. So it's now actually older than official `proton-cli` package, `-ng` suffix in naming is wrong now.

I suggest you to submit this package with a different name, e.g. `protonvpn-cli-community` and re-request a merger, but against that package. This will allow avoiding wrong naming here.

yurikoles,

Thanks for the request! Actually, the two packages are distinct. protonvpn-cli-ng is community-maintained and is an older package that some still use as their preferred client. While I recommend that everyone does start using the new protonvpn-cli, they are not the same package.

Cheers, Nate Ijams
