a821 [1] filed a deletion request for kerf-git [2]:

Unmaintained package that has been broken since late 2015.

First of all, the sources and URL are wrong. The correct repository
should be kerf1 [0], because kerf (or kerf2) [1] was first committed
just two years ago, seven years before the AUR submission.

Secondly, even if you correct the sources, the install command in the
PKGBUILD points to a file that was deleted in Nov 2015 [2], therefore
this has been broken since then.

No one noticed nor complained except for the deprecated git://
protocol in 2022. I also would like to point out that the maintainer
was removed from the TU group due to inactivity.

Seems like no one need this.
