[PRQ#52967] Deletion Request for cider2-bin
cryptofyre [1] filed a deletion request for cider2-bin [2]: This is piracy, Cider 2.0+ is a paid product and not FoSS therefore should not be distributed via the AUR. It is only officially available through Itch.io and the Microsoft Store. I advise this gets removed as this is illegal distribution/use of our product.

Not true.
Cider 2.0+ is a paid product and not FoSS therefore should not be distributed via the AUR.
I fail to see what it is being distributed. The PKGBUILD has not directly link to the deb file, in fact, you need to acquire it first in order to make a package. Hint: see this line source=("file://cider_${pkgver}_amd64.deb") (it should use local:// instead but that's not the point)

Request #52967 has been Rejected by gromit [1]: Not a problem, since the AUR only uses build the build files for Archlinux and does not do anything bad here (i.e. point to a cracked version). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/gromit/
