If another TU wants to jump in and handle this request, please do. Wow, what a mess. For now I would certainly leave the songbird-svn. It has correct name and it seems to be quite good PKGBUILD. I'd prefer if the songbird-auto-nightly was renamed to the songbird-nightly-bin and then removed. I think songbird should be removed, because it's in fact the same as songbird-svn. I don't see any reason to keep it because it seems that they do not release any source tarballs. However it has just too much votes to remove it. Lukas Jesus, well the nicest thing to do then would be to first replace songbird-nightly with songbird-auto-nightly and _then_ delete: songbird, songbird-auto-nightly and songbird-nightly-bin. Songbird does indeed have a lot of votes, which is just too bad, but if the binary version of Songbird has to be songbird-bin, then the SVN version of Songbird has to also be songbird-svn... unless that logic would need the developers to release a versioned source too... which they don't. Chrissake, Det I know little about it, but if I'm not wrong, songbird for linux isn't developed anymore? So what does it matter? -- Philipp -- Wir stehen selbst enttäuscht und sehn betroffen / Den Vorhang zu und alle Fragen offen. Bertolt Brecht, Der gute Mensch von Sezuan It seems you're right. It should be replaced by Nightingale (http://getnightingale.com/), Songbird's fork.
