[aur-requests] [PRQ#35359] Deletion Request for chowtapemodel.lv2-git
dvzrv [1] filed a deletion request for chowtapemodel.lv2-git [2]: chowtapemodel-lv2-git exists, there is no reason to have both. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/dvzrv/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/chowtapemodel.lv2-git/
Request #35359 has been Rejected by Muflone [1]: the chowtapemodel-lv2-git is newer and other packages depend on chowtapemodel.lv2-git [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Muflone/

The only other package depending on chowtapemodel.lv2-git is a meta package, which can easily be adapted. Upstream [1] is a cross-plugin-type project and the maintainer of chowtapemodel.lv2-git has not been building (and refused to build) the other plugin types for ideological/political reasons. Building all plugin types in a split package is the only sane way to deal with this package, which chowtapemodel-git already provides (even though it is newer). This has been communicated in #archlinux-proaudio and I see no reason as to why to have chowtapemodel.lv2-git still be around. It has been clearly communicated with the author of chowtapemodel-git to add further maintainers (e.g. that of chowtapemodel.lv2-git) if they show interest. Going through the hassle of merging the packages is more work than is warranted given this situation IMHO. Best, David [1] https://github.com/jatinchowdhury18/AnalogTapeModel -- https://sleepmap.de
