MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge public-inbox [2] into public- inbox-git [3]:
AUR/public-inbox is broken and abandoned since 2020. Whereas public-inbox-git has a maintainer, and is in a functioning state. Also, though upstream does publish releases, those have become very infrequent and unreliable (only 3 release tags since 2020). Whereas the git master is constantly receiving enhancements and fixes. This application has an extensive, exhaustive test harness, with 2300+ test cases. (Despite this, the build and the test execution is very fast even on an old mid-performance consumer laptop.) These tests ensure that even the git master version should be very robust and reliable - and if it breaks after a specific commit, the PKGBUILD will fail, so users won't get a broken package to install.
