Hi The package mongosh was and it's still severely out of date since months.
The user dfimium499 on March 26th requested the package being made orphan as it was outdated for months https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/ZUEXZBL5RRQESOHYOHCTXYNDNN7AFB3L/ His request was accepted 2 weeks later without any updates and then later he became the only maintainer for the package. Therefore since that day he's the only one able to update the package. Previous maintainers were removed when the orphan request was accepted. Now is dfimium499 duty to update the package, he has left a comment about that on the AUR page, please allow the maintainer some time to update the package and collaborate with him on fixing the package. I cannot spot any abuse here, nothing strange someone has adopted a package orphan after being out of date for some months.
