I honestly can't remember that I filed the request but maybe I have. The idea was likely to rename the package. But yes, that doesn't make too much sense because as you say - those are different packages (on for the latest release and one for the Git master).

Speaking of names: It would still make sense to use a consistent prefix for those cross-compilation packages. For instance Android packages use android-$arch- and mingw-w64 packages use mingw-w64-. I propose to use apple-darwin- for Mac OS but maybe you have a better suggestion.

But I lost the motivation to work on Mac OS cross compilation anyways. I even managed to cross compile a static build of Qt 5 and link my own applications against it. However, I have no Mac OS system to debug runtime issues so the effort was quite pointless after all.

I merely got some experience and came to the conclusion that the packaging still needs to be improved to be useful: https://github.com/Martchus/PKGBUILDs/issues/44#issuecomment-351698312

Hi,

You filled a merge request for osxcross-git. Sorry, this isn't how it works: creating a new package and requesting the deletion of the same one is not productive. Instead send patches there to improve the PKGBUILD.

Additionally, this isn't a -git package. Both packages (pinned and -git) are useful, merging those won't allow users to track the Git repo anymore.
