[aur-general] Upgrade AUR visp package to get ViSP 3.3.0 release

[Chris Billington]

You are not a maintainer of the AUR package, so you don't have permission
to push.

You will need to ask the current maintainer to add you as a co-maintainer,
or to orphan the package so that you can adopt it. If they aren't
cooperative or don't respond, you would then file an orphan request (via
the AUR web interface) and a TU would decide if it should be orphaned (if
the maintainer isn't updating a package that's out of date fora year, I
would think an orphan request would be granted). But getting them to
voluntarily orphan it is obviously the best option.
