[PRQ#59491] Deletion Request for appmenu-glib-translator-git
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for appmenu-glib-translator-git [2]: This tries (but fails) to build the exact same code as the split package AUR/vala-panel-appmenu-xfce-git (owned by same AUR maintainer) [a], from the same source: https://gitlab.com/vala-panel-project/vala-panel-appmenu This is a pointless duplication. If there is a need to package some extra files with a separate $pkgname, those should be added inside the existing AUR/vala-panel-appmenu-xfce- git as a new split package entry. [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/vala-panel-appmenu-xfce-git [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/appmenu-glib-translator-git/
MarsSeed, how it fails? It build a different library. Yes, from same repo, but options are different. Why you fill a deletion request and do not ask me, what package does, and why it is unsuitable as split package? @all: Please, do not delete this package, it is essential for vala-panel-appmenu.

This package is base library for both vala-panel (system tray) and appmenu. If I will incorporate this package into vala-panel-appmenu-xfce-git pkgbase, then circular dependency will appear. And this is a subproject, so, it is roughly the same situation like with appmenu-gtk-module-git, which is built from same source.

Request #59491 has been Rejected by Muflone [1]: see maintainer answer. also having two pkgbase from the same source is not prohibited. unclear if the package has issues [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Muflone/
