[aur-requests] [PRQ#16805] Deletion Request for the-darkmod-tweaked

[notify at aur.archlinux.org]

eschwartz [1] filed a deletion request for the-darkmod-tweaked [2]:

After discussion in the package comments for thedarkmod-bin, it was
determined that the custom installer used in the former package
"darkmod" violated the rules of submission on numerous levels.

The package was reimplemented by a Trusted User, and for good measure
cleaned up and renamed to something more closely matching upstream
intentions, but for all this, the core issue with
https://gitlab.com/es20490446e/the-darkmod-tweaked had nothing to do
whether mv is better than cp, or whatever else this justification
entails:

```
So I'm providing an alternative version for this package, called "the-
darkmod-tweaked", with the following enhancements over the official
bundle:

    Separated saved games and downloaded mission repository for each
user.
    Missions cache auto-cleanup.
    Enhanced installation speed compared with the official installer.
```

No, this is not acceptable. Your new package is still obfuscation and
violates the rules of submission.

Your "tweaks" in comparison with thedarkmod-bin do not answer the
question: "why was the previous package orphaned via moderator
action".

You may not re-upload a package which was deemed inadmissible to the
AUR, and simply rename the pkgname in order to justify its existence.
You are REQUIRED to either:
- first defend your claim that the initial judgment "this is unfit for
the AUR" was incorrect, or
- fix the problems

You have done neither.
