[aur-requests] [PRQ#34793] Deletion Request for networkmanager-secure
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for networkmanager-secure [2]: Abandoned package, last updated in 2018. (Flagged out-of-date in 2020, but not updated.) Package name misleading. This was not more secure than [extra] networkmanager. It added only one privacy feature (hostname sending disabled), while it weakened other security aspects with: - disabling stricter build warnings, - using obsolete iptables instead of nftables, - turning off audit library. It also disabled LTO, which degrades performance compared to the repo package. I strongly suggest to delete this package, as it has not been maintained by anyone in 4 years and does not really provide anything beneficial compared to [extra] networkmanager.
