xiota [1] filed a deletion request for lightdm-pantheon-greeter-git
[2]:

Modifying my previous deletion request (PRQ#41468) by providing
additional information and explanation.  I had previously thought this
package is a duplicate of extra/lightdm-pantheon-greeter, rather, it
is a *near* duplicate.  While the extra package does not fully track
git, it is written to use selected git commits.  If this practice is
expected to continue in the extra package, the AUR package may be
considered sufficiently similar to warrant deletion.

Further, this package fails to satisfy the "useful" criterion of the
AUR submission guidelines, defined as "more than a few people would
find this package useful".  In Dec 2020, a commit was made that broke
this package.  This package has few enough users that this problem
apparently went unnoticed until Apr 2023.  After being notified of the
issue via comment, there was no response for well over a month.  Upon
noticing the issue, the maintainer did fix it, but then dropped the
package, so that it is now unmaintained.
