Hi,
I have recently taken up maintenance of the orphaned package
xf86-input-egalax https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35045
This package will replace the package xf86-input-egalax-linux3
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=55050 to provide a more
standard package name.
Can someone please check the PKGBUILD in xf86-input-egalax to confirm I
have written it correctly so when users with package
xf86-input-egalax-linux3 next update, it will be replaced with
xf86-input-egalax?
Upon this confirmation, can we please merge xf86-input-egalax-linux3
into xf86-input-egalax?
I also notice there are 2 other orphaned packages which provide the same
functionality. They are both out of date, orphaned and no longer build.
Can these be deleted please?
touchkit: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18766
xf86-input-egalax-beta: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=43641
There is a 3rd out of date package which no longer builds, but is not
orphaned. It has not been updated since 23 June 2010.
xf86-input-egalax-xorg18: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38300
Do I need to contact this maintainer first before requesting the package
to be deleted?
Thanks.
Lachlan.
