sioyek-dev: request for maintainers

Hi Arch community,

Long ago I've actually moved off of arch to NixOS & OpenBSD. I currently maintain one AUR repo for the PDF viewer sioyek:

https://forge.barrettruth.com/barrettruth/sioyek-dev

If anyone would like to "step up" as maintainer, please let me know! It's hardly any work at all

Re: sioyek-dev: request for maintainers

Please don't update a VCS PKGBUILD just when there have been new commits .

Consider changing the name to something like sioyek-dev-git to get closer to archlinux package guidelies (and make life a bit easier for unsupported stuff like yay) .

An alternative could be to switch the package to building a specific commit hash so it becomes a fixed version package instead of a VCS package.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?

Re: sioyek-dev: request for maintainers

I agree with you on all points, especially the naming.

Reiterating that I once more no longer wish to be the maintainer/hoster of the source code of this repo, and this includes a fresh "sioyek-dev-git" that ought to be made.

if you use sioyek, please hmu A lot of people use this package!
