[aur-requests] [PRQ#20000] Deletion Request for dmenu-rs
michaelrose [1] filed a deletion request for dmenu-rs [2]: Build file says that it provides and conflicts with dmenu because it replaces dmenu with an executable of the same name. As it is an entirely new package and not a fork of dmenu it should create an exectuable named dmenu-rs not replace dmenu [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/michaelrose/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/dmenu-rs/
Request #20000 has been rejected by Alad [1]: Not a reason for deletion, mention it in the comment section. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Alad/
This is not even a reason to mention in the comments. It's perfectly valid for a rewrite to try to be a drop in replacement under the very same binary name. This is appropriately reflected with a provides and conflicts there is literally nothing to do here.... Except that the package is an unpinned -git package from its behavior
