I'll keep doing my thing, like most other maintainers on AUR do.
That's totally fine for me. If you have your reasons, keep doing that. In the past, maintainers didn't know and were happy someone told them. I see no reason to be offended by this. Merry Christmas to you too!
PS: The comparison with paru-git is unfortunately flawed, because exactly zero of the commits have only bumped the pkgver. But please, you do you.
@gwuensch Sorry you don't like it. Yet, I'll keep doing my thing, like most other maintainers on AUR do. Until I get banned, that is. Feel free to complain to AUR admins. Don't forget to mention other packages like paru as well. Better still, contribute something meaningful to a project of your liking. Merry Christmas!
I'm saying not even this is necessary. The Wiki clearly states:
VCS packages are not considered out of date when the pkgver changes; do not flag them as the maintainer will merely unflag the package and ignore you. AUR maintainers should not commit mere pkgver bumps.
@gwuensch
I don't update the version on every commit, this would overflow people with updates. There were over 100 commits between v48 and v49, for example. I only bump the git version when I do a release of MoreWaita. It would be weird to have v49 in the non-git package and v48 in the git version.
Thanks for maintaining this package! Just wanted to note that you don't need to bump the pkgver with every commit, the Wiki even discourages it.
If you're upgrading to v47 from a previous version of this icon theme, it will break your custom assigned folder icons because the folder structure of the theme has changed. Simply reassign your custom folder icons.

I haven't lied once in this whole story. Check my comment below, posted on 2024-09-22 16:51 (BST), where I said there were breaking changes coming and asked you whether you'd be ready to make quick changes.
You are totally inverting the situation you created yourself.
You could've disowned the package when I first asked you to instead of lecturing me about abandoning projects and trying to teach me lessons while falsely accusing me of lies along the way. No worries. Life will teach you the right lessons one way or another as you grow up. Happens to everyone. This one was an easy opportunity for you to learn something, but you've obviously missed it. When you don't learn, though, each next try becomes harder. I sincerely hope you don't get to the really hard ones. Best of luck in your future endeavours.
@somepaulo stop lying. I have no emails or GitHub pings from you, no communication at all. I even have release notifications on for your repository, and there were no mentions of breaking changes to packaging. It appears you are acting entirely in bad faith – I suggest you stop sabatoging your own project and alienating your community out of spite.
I will be disowning this package and disabling notifications, given you clearly have some personal vendetta against me. I hope the best for you going forward, and maybe you can look back on this in the future and learn from your mistakes.
@That1Calculator
I did tell you before that breaking changes were coming, and I did ask you whether you'd be willing to quickly change the package if/when that hapens. You didn't care to even reply. The folder structure has changed to match Adwaita. There's a note about it at the start of readme in the repo. Haven't you seen it?
Since I'm an Arch user and I develop MoreWaita on Arch, I need a reliable way of testing my work on a live system. The git package is the only way. I had to create a new package since you were not immediately available when I pushed the changes.
While dusansimic was maintaining this package and contributing to MoreWaita, he was actually collaborating (see point 7 of AUR maintainer's guidelines), not causing problems like you have been recently. Your insistence on keeping my project hostage on AUR is what actually looks like spite, not to mention immaturity.
@somepaulo would you mind telling me what those changes are? Also, your package is a duplicate of what this is – it seems to me you're doing this out of spite and immaturity.
