[aur-requests] [PRQ#702] Deletion Request for intellij-idea-13-community
FTC56 [1] filed a deletion request for intellij-idea-13-community [2]: Package already in the official repository. https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/any/intellij-idea-community-edi...

Hi, The idea of intellij-idea-<version>-community [1,2,3] is to provide the Community Edition of IntellIJ in a specific major version. With the release of IntelliJ IDEA 14 being imminent it is foreseeable that intellij-idea-community-edition will move to this new version. But since there are good reasons to stay with a particular major version of the IDE, e. g. bugs or incompatibilities with new versions, availability of plugins etc., I would strongly suggest not to remove the intellij-idea-<version>-community packages.

Once a new version goes into the repos, sure, upload a PKGBUILD that builds the old version. Until then, this is a duplicate and should be removed.
