I was fooled for a second. I thought this was just another R Studio. I'm guilty of not reading the package description too: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1361971#p1361971 Can we force the maintainer to change package name? Does the package have to be properly disowned and reuploaded with a different name? Yeah, they have to conform to existing naming schemes. I say rename it to r-studio, though that doesn't really look that much more helpful. I can e-mail the maintainer and we can wait the customary 2 weeks, but what exactly should I tell him? He did provide a description, so maybe uploading an r-studio package using the PKGBUILD provided by gbc921 would be enough? Since there was no 'rstudio' at the time that user uploaded this one, there is no infringement of any rule or guideline per se. Just tell them to upload an 'r-studio' to mitigate the confusion that resulted from it. I don't think there is any need to merge unless there were relevant comments. It is up to the maintainer to update the PKGBUILD with the suggested changes. -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1

It's halfway there, it doesn't conflict with or provide theharvester package, though that's something I was going to mention when I comment about some changes they should make to the PKGBUILD (shouldn't be an 'any' package, binaries shouldn't be in /usr/sbin, etc.). I just wanted to check that such packages are allowed before prompting them to fix it up. But if this whole thing is a package of a real software collection (and not just a mash-up by a packager) then I see no problem. It's the latter, the package pulls from two different, unrelated sources and merges them into one package. The only thing is, neither source is otherwise available on the AUR or official repositories (as far as I can tell). A better way to rephrase what I meant is this: if it's a useful bundle that people will use (if some people find the beta dep better), then there is no problem. The Arch way would be to provide a separate package for the beta dep instead, but you can tell if your idea (of bundling) is working if nobody says anything about that. -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1

If he doesn't respond in two weeks, maybe a TU can reupload and disown it, or remove it from the AUR altogether, whichever is deemed the correct action.
[aur-general] TU resignation
Hi everyone, I've been pretty busy lately and haven't been able to find the time to fix bugs and keep my packages up-to-date. Lately I haven't actually been using any of the packages I maintain, so I think the time has come to pass them on to someone with the time and motivation to maintain them. So, without further ado, I hereby tender my resignation as a TU. I wish you all the best and hope you continue doing the things which make Arch so great. Best, Jonathan P.S. I've had trouble getting GPG and gmail to play together, so I've attached the contents of this message and signed that instead of signing the email itself. -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, I've been pretty busy lately and haven't been able to find the time to fix bugs and keep my packages up-to-date.
