Earler, owner updated it to 1.0.0 without adjusting the dependencies accordingly.

Sorry, this is my mistake and not an attempt to reject a previous deletion request.

I don't think it is useful to keep this on AUR.

I agree with you. Haven't seen the latest version from extra. Recently I tried to build cherrytree-bin, but I could not create the libcmt ABI, it was always ahead of the Debian version, so support does not make sense.

This is a badly maintained package.

Earler, owner updated it to 1.0.0 without adjusting the dependencies accordingly.

I left a detailed feedback in a comment, listing all the needed changes, backing it up with the output of a namcap analysis.

Then, instead of fixing the dependencies, owner just downgraded the package to 0.99.37 without bumping the epoch.

In addition, owner chose to make the PKGBUILD extract the tarball directly into the $pkgdir, keeping the upstream files' ownership and access attributes.

I don't think it is useful to keep this on AUR. Arch maintainers competently take care of the package for this in extra repo, which is on the latest upstream version (not even 1.0.0 but 1.0.1 as of now, released on August 25th, 2023). [a]
