Re: Packages for a simple symbolic link?

Hi,

you forgot vi-vim-symlink.

No, please, don't remove those packages.

The question is : how do you swap stand-in software with the original in a
maintainable fashion


   - sendmail -> postfix
   - pulseaudio -> pipewire
   - vi -> vim
   - firefox -> lots of candidates


while still using the original name in scripts, human habits ?

And, to be honest, firefox is an easier to remember name than librefox.

Packages for a simple symbolic link?

2023-12-04 Thread Ralf Mardorf
Hi,

I came across the following packages purely by chance.

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=cachy-browser-firefox-shim
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=librewolf-firefox-shim

Should I submit a deletion request? IMO it's strange to build a package
just for a link.

Regards,
Ralf
