[PRQ#40425] Deletion Request for mesa-panfork-git
1ace [1] filed a deletion request for mesa-panfork-git [2]: panfork is a hostile fork of Mesa created for the sole purpose of making a repeated abuser look legitimate against their victim and against the upstream Mesa community who banned him twice (we gave him a second chance after a few months as he pretended to have understood that his behaviour was unacceptable, but he started again soon after). See the discussion at https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4476 which is where I learned that someone packaged his fork on the AUR, giving implicit legitimacy to this behaviour, although I expect the packager wasn't aware of the reason the fork exists and didn't think to check. Please delete this package group, and if there is such a feature, please block `*panfork*` packages in the future. Thanks :) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/1ace/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/mesa-panfork-git/
Request #40425 has been Rejected by blakkheim [1]: Forks of software are allowed on the AUR regardless of drama among the developers. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/blakkheim/
