MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mangonel [2]:

I'm submitting this as just a suggestion to delete this package.

Last stable release v1.1 is dated 2013-11-02.

This package cannot be built because a mandatory KDE4 dependency
is missing.

Meanwhile, AUR/mangonel-git VCS package might still work because
the code has been ported to KDE5 and sees regular fixes.

So to ease maintenance, and because there are no working stable
releases,
it would be best IMHO to delete this package and keep only the -git
one.

Potential users would also benefit, as then they would automatically
find the working -git package instead of trying to build this broken
one.
