As the current maintainer of this aur package, I would like to note that 
prusa-slicer-bin do provide some value over 
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/prusa-slicer/ as it includes 
pre-release binaries (as specified in its description).

Those pre-release / release candidate version do use the same configuration 
folder as final release one (which alpha & beta version do not) and are 
considered mostly safe to use with just some cutting edge new features 
available.

The value of this package is to be able to install and tests pre-release 
versions which are not shipped as part of extra/prusa-slicer.

If this is something that is not welcomed in the aur, I understand and this 
package can be removed. I just felt like the specific way configuration are 
handled by this package warranted the existence of a package that included 
stable and release-candidate versions.

Best,
Orax
