[PRQ#48782] Deletion Request for openssh-dotconfig
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openssh-dotconfig [2]: Duplicate of core/openssh, with minimal modification. XDG Base Directory specification support is a fundamental goal of Arch Linux. This modification makes the package adhere less to that, because it hardcodes $HOME/.config as the basedir of .ssh configuration dir, but this does not respect XDG_CONFIG_HOME. If a repo package could be enhanced with better customizability and/or stronger adherence to XDG specifications, one should file an upstream issue and/or an Arch Linux bug with a suggested patch, instead of recreating Arch repo builds on AUR.

Request #48782 has been Rejected by serebit [1]: Not a substantial enough reason for deletion. This package falls under the rule that patched versions of packages in the official repositories are allowed. If you're concerned with how this package is being maintained, an orphan request is preferable. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/serebit/
