[SOLVED] How to find why a package was removed from the AUR

I was updating my system today and noticed this

:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core                                                           116.6 KiB   145 KiB/s 00:01 [######################################################] 100%
 extra                                                            7.5 MiB  2024 KiB/s 00:04 [######################################################] 100%

 -> Packages not in AUR: latex-listings-rust-git
:: 2 packages to upgrade/install.
2  core/linux       6.11.7.arch1-1    -> 6.11.8.arch1-2
1  devel/dcron-git  4.6.r1.g1f53001-1 -> latest-commit
==> Packages to exclude: (eg: "1 2 3", "1-3", "^4" or repo name)
 -> Excluding packages may cause partial upgrades and break systems
==> ^C

As you can see latex-listings-rust-git is no longer there, despite it existing at one point. url="https://github.com/denki/listings-rust"

I searched the forum and packages and dont see any info on why this was done. Where can i look for this info before readding it myself to the AUR?

It doesn't appear to have ever been in the AUR. If it had been added and then subsequently deleted you'd still be able to see the git history at https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … s-rust-git
