[PRQ#48535] Deletion Request for cura-5-plugin-octoprint
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for cura-5-plugin-octoprint [2]: Rename and resubmit as 'cura-plugin-octoprint' But don't create two split packages with only a different dash in their names. (Currently this PKGBUILD creates the following split packages: - cura5-plugin-octoprint - cura-5-plugin-octoprint) Latest version of cura is 5.4.0, that is why it is needed to eliminate the major version number from the pkgname. Also, upstream does not maintain different stable major versions in parallel. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/cura-5-plugin-octoprint/
Also this package is currently a hybrid VCS+non-VCS package, as pointed out by @Auerhuhn in a comment on 2022-08-16. This has not been remediated ever since. AUR has a proper VCS package for this plugin. [a] That is what users can rely on until a rule-conforming stable package gets uploaded.

Request #48535 has been Rejected by muflone [1]: I'd delete this package but it would break cura-5-bin and other packages. please write your comments to the package maintainer to fix the package before asking for deletion [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/muflone/
