[PRQ#49128] Orphan Request for paru
MarsSeed [1] filed an orphan request for paru [2]: I'd like to take over maintenence of this package, because I use it, and I want to address the serious packaging errors that current maintainer @Morganamilo doesn't want to hear. It is clear that this package is not maintained in a very careful and competetent manner, which is ironic. I can do a much better job at it, and would like to be given the chance. AUR is for serving users, and meaningful AUR feedback need to be addressed by maintainers instead of being silent because they just expect people to go over to GitHub and comment there. PKGBUILD related feedback belongs properly to AUR, which maintainer *deliberately* ignores. AUR is supposed to be a meritocracy. Just because @Morganamilo is a Trusted User shouldn't mean that she is automatically exempt from having to fulfill basic AUR maintainer requirements and that she is immune to feedback and due criticism. Please remove her ownership of this package and let me take over. I am more willing and capable to implement current Arch package guidelines which now state that it is best practice to declare all direct library dependencies. Also, I always respond to relevant user comments on packages I maintain. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/paru/
Request #49128 has been Rejected by muflone [1]: please don't start a war on AUR. Morganamilo is also the software author and as you can see she doesn't read the comments in the package page and try to collaborate in enhancing the package, maybe co- maintaining the package. contact the maintainer by email or github first [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/muflone/
