[PRQ#74986] Orphan Request for coreutils-uutils
oech3 [1] filed an orphan request for coreutils-uutils [2]: This builds everything of Extra/uutils-coreutils and replace system binary "without" check() func of PKGBUILD of Extra/uutils-coreutils. It could be improved without lacking any component and we should use check() ed binary if it is used as drop-in for safety. But current owner is extremely negtive to do. I want to improve this package (and remove a duplicate). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/oech3/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/coreutils-uutils/
Update: I noticed that this drop-in of system coreutils builds broken stty binary which would break system. Other binary might have same issue. I don't know how to fix it and maintainer is clearly inactive. This package is not just for duplication. Please orphan or delete this package. oech3

Request #74986 has been Rejected by Muflone [1]: the lack of check() is not a valid reason to make the package orphan. also your claims about the breakage have no a valid reporting to the current maintainer [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Muflone/
