FabioLolix [1] filed a deletion request for filezilla-bin [2]: filezilla is in the officiak repo, this pkgbuild is not using source=() and *sums=() and "gets the checksum dynamically with curl" [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/FabioLolix/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/filezilla-bin/

somebody [1] filed a deletion request for avalonia-ilspy-bin [2]: so it turns out the only way to get updated binaries is via github ci artifacts, and those don't have actual releases unfortunately [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/somebody/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/avalonia-ilspy-bin/

I was not aware that it is against the AUR rules to publish new software on an orphaned AUR package. Generally speaking it's which upstream came first. In this case yours haven't even been around for a month while the original project is alive and healthy 2 years running. If you where to replace the AUR package the upstream should be dead and more people should be associating the project name with the new one instead of the one that came before. But this is a case-by-case basis decision. Squatting the package after it's being disowned without even bothering to reply on the thread is not fine, please don't do that. -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16 > > On May 30, 2021, at 9:25 AM, Morten Linderud <foxboron(a)archlinux.org> wrote: > > > > I can't set people as maintainers. > > > > I'll force disown the package and if they adopt it again I'll suspend the > > account with a warning. > > > > -- > > Morten Linderud > > PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16 > > > >> On Sun, May 30, 2021 at 03:21:37PM +0200, Sonny Piers wrote: > >> My requested was accepted but David re-took ownership 1 minute after being > >> disowned. > >> > >> Foxboron, could you set yochananmarqos > >> <https://aur.archlinux.org/account/yochananmarqos> as owner for tangram > >> <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tangram/> so that we can all move on? > >> > >> Thank you. > >> > >>> On lun., mai 24 2021 at 16:32:01 +0200, Sonny Piers <sonny(a)fastmail.net> > >>> wrote: > >>> Hello, > >>> > >>> David is unresponsive, can a trusted AUR user have a look at this > >>> request please? > >>> > >>> tdlr: I created the tangram aur package for my app > >>> <https://github.com/sonnyp/tangram> , I orphaned the package in the hope > >>> that someone would take over, David took the name for his own > >>> application.

dbermond [1] filed a deletion request for intel-media-server-studio [2]: Upstream now redirects the Linux version to Intel Media SDK on GitHub.
