[PRQ#73758] Deletion Request for electron-launcher
oech3 [1] filed a deletion request for electron-launcher [2]: This operation is provided by eletron* package launching /usr/lib/electron*/electron (or symlink). Launching it directly blocks flag files. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/oech3/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/electron-launcher/
IMHO this is not correct. Launching my /usr/bin/electron just forwards, including any args you pass. Reason for this aur is that if you install the electronXX-bin AUR (like electron35-bin and/or electron36-bin) which do not provide electron, that you still satisfy any packages that depend on electron.

Request #73758 has been Rejected by oech3 [1]: Launcher for local latest electron. Weak point of current packaging layout. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/oech3/
