MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for teamspeak3-kde-link-fix-hack
[2]:

Unneeded package, functionally a duplicate of the earlier-existing
'teamspeak3-kde-wrapper'.

This package also violates Arch packaging guidelines by putting a
script in '/usr/local/bin'.

What's more, that script is named xdg-open, and with that, it will
shadow the /usr/bin/xdg-open script installed on most desktop systems
by xdg-utils package.

The intention of this package is to unset some environment variables
set by teamspeak3 which causes desktop integration issues on KDE. But
this solution will affect every process that is opened via xdg-open,
not just teamspeak3.

So I am asking for the deletion of this bad 'hack'. The
'teamspeak3-kde-wrapper' is a much more civilized solution to the same
problem.
