While I understand why Allan did this, shouldn't this be unnecessary for
the [testing] repo? Those who use it know what to do, after all....
Probably. And if the breakage was more minor, I would have left it there
(e.g. what has been done with the make package). But given I still do not
100% understand the bug and the there is no real schedule for an upstream
fix, I thought it best to just make everybody's life easier and remove the
package for the time being.
Why not just remove the patch increment pkgrel and let pacman -Su do the rest?
Why? User of [testing] should see the message on arch-dev-public and be
competent enough to downgrade.
