that's true, i use a different handle on github. i can make a change to the readme or something to prove... the creator kinda... disappeared (i tried getting in touch several times), but i got maintainer access, and i've been keeping it afloat over the last couple of years.

Only @riven04 can do that I'm just a co-maintainer. But you have to prove who you are. There's no @motherofmilk on the github repo.

Any chance we could the .desktop entry installed too? Something like this should do the trick.

install -Dm644 "${_pkgname}.desktop" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/${_pkgname}.desktop"

The author (barrotes on the AUR) specifically made changes this year so this AUR package could be updated. I'm sure you saw the reddit post.

It won't be in good faith to change the upstream URL. Try to get your changes upstreamed, or perhaps create a new package? (I only see a PR for a PKGBUILD on the repo)

Hi, i have tried to add some changes to the original repos but the author seems to be away This fork contains a lot of changes and quality of life improvements which is mentioned in the README.

https://github.com/AlfredEVOL/zaread

If u think this changes are worth it and if the author is away, you could change the source to this fork.

P.S : i am maintaing this fork

Done.

Why was this suddenly orphaned while I was maintaining it? If it can't be undone, can I be added as co-maintainer please?

TheOPtimal, please orphan the package so someone else can pick it up.
