[aur-requests] [PRQ#13063] Orphan Request for kdiff3-kf5-git
prash [1] filed a orphan request for kdiff3-kf5-git [2]:
I would like to take ownership of this package. The package has not been updated in over 2 years, and there have been significant updates since then. The repository has changed, there is now a tagged stable release, etc. I have made local changes to the PKGBUILD, but I'm sure plenty of other people are affected by the lack of updates.
The package has been marked out of date since a couple of months, but there haven't been any updates at all.

Request #13063 has been accepted by eschwartz [1]:
sure, but wouldn't it make more sense to rename it to kdiff3-git?
It definitely would. I was in two minds about whether or not to create a package that is identical to kdiff3-kf5-git with the only difference being minor changes to build the latest sources.
If that's what you recommend, I'll create kdiff3-git and mark this for deletion.

Merge request, not deletion, that way we preserve the votes. But yes, please do. :)
