MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pdfminer [2]: Unneeded EOL Python module from 2019. Repo has the latest version of its community-maintained, drop-in compatible fork, whose PyPI name is 'pdfminer.six', but which provides the original CLI and importable module names: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-pdfminer/ All AUR consumers actually depend on 'python-pdfminer', which is the name of the repo package, and this AUR build just provides it virtually. Which means that the AUR packages have all been using the repo build, not this legacy one. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pdfminer/
