[PRQ#47826] Deletion Request for glfw-git-minecraft
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Feb '24

18 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for glfw-git-minecraft [2]: Newly submitted VCS package that violates Arch naming rules. Git based VCS packages shall have names that end with '-git'. This package also confusingly provides both glfw-x11 and glfw-wayland, despite those two being separately configured builds. The intention of this package seems to be to provide patched Wayland based glfw runtime to Minecraft. If my latter assumption is true, then this package should build only the Wayland variant, and be resubmitted under the name 'glfw-wayland- minecraft-git'.
