MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for aiopm [2]:

Seriously violates packaging etiquette: runs sudo mkdir /usr/aiopm; sudo touch /usr/aiopm/a1.cw inside the build() function.

And useless, broken, badly packaged. Upstream code is dead on arrival.

Depends on AUR/eaur from same owner, who submitted his own package for deletion (PRQ#59562). [a]

That latter application fails to run and crashes with the following output:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::filesystem::__cxx11::filesystem_error' what(): filesystem error: cannot set current path: No such file or directory Aborted (core dumped)

Otherwise aiopm seems to run in dry-run mode when other installation sources are selected, e.g. 'flatpak', 'new', 'snap', 'pip' - it does nothing.

Personal sandbox/dummy packages don't belong on the AUR.

[1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/aiopm/ Submitter disowned this useless and problematic package.
