MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for firefox-beta-i18n [2]:

Please kindly delete this again.

It was deleted on 16 Apr 2022, then re-pushed by @bittin on 20 Apr
2022.

Original request for deletion was:
https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-
requests/2022-March/069119.html

Package has been defunct since Dec 2021, because it had a version-
constrained dependency on AUR/firefox-beta which was not updated after
Nov 2021.

@bittin was the maintainer of this package and a co-maintainer of
AUR/firefox-beta but they never updated the latter, only the former.

So along with this package, the permanently unmaintained AUR/firefox-
beta got deleted on 16 Apr 2022 - original request for the latter was:
https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-
requests/2022-March/069118.html

But then @bittin re-pushed this obsolete package without recreating
and updating the corresponding firefox-beta package.

@bittin does not ever respond to any message of mine, but they
continue to re-flag this obsolete package as out-of-date whenever a
new Firefox Beta is out.

Meanwhile there is no firefox-beta on AUR so this package is not
needed.
