Hey,

There's currently 6 osd-lyrics packages in AUR, 4 of which are redundant.
<http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489>
osd-lyrics: 
<http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489>http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30489
* Should be left and updated since it has the correct naming

osdlyrics: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29787
* The project's name is "osd-lyrics" - not "osdlyrics"
* Maintained, but severly out-of-date

osd-lyrics-stable: 
<http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50725>http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50725
* Wrong naming
* Sadly, currently the only one up-to-date (decluding the -git package)

osd-lyrics-stsable: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50724
* A typoed upload that the maintainer decided to leave in the AUR

osd-lyrics-svn: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30488
* Upstream moved to git ( http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29787)

        Thanks for your time,
        Det
