[PRQ#40710] Deletion Request for stegsnow
newsboost [1] filed a deletion request for stegsnow [2]: Hi. Today I tried to install this: Cloning into bare repository '/home/user/.cache/yay/stegsnow/stegsnow'... fatal: repository 'https://anonscm.debian.org/git/collab- maint/stegsnow.git/' not found ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading stegsnow git repo Then I saw that almost a year ago, the user "toranova" commented on 2022-04-05 07:39 (UTC): "changing the source to https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-security-team/stegsnow.git helped solve the problem." - I now see that this is completely the same as: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=stegsnow-git So either both should be merged - or this one (which doesn't work) should be deleted. But since this comment has been written almost a whole year ago and the maintainer only is responsible for this single package, I'm pretty sure this package is orphaned (otherwise the PKGBUILD should've been fixed). The easiest thing is to just delete this package and users who want to install it, in the future will just use "stegsnow-git" - which I also just installed. Delete this package and there's only one of them and no confusion and I believe the maintainer has orphaned this. Thanks, Br, M.
