Libadwaita-testing orphaned, but many applications depend on it

[olividir]

So after last few updates, the terminal has been prompting me that

earching AUR for updates...
 -> Orphaned AUR Packages:  libadwaita-testing
 there is nothing to do

But of course multiple applications use it as a dependency, such as gnome-bluetooth, gnome-calendar, nautilus and more.

Did I miss something regarding this particular update? I have been trying to find something about this on the Arch wiki, but haven’t found anything concrete yet.
Am I supposed to change to a different libadwaita package?

Install the normal libadwaita. You shouldn’t need to use the testing version in normal circumstances. When you install that, it should automatically remove libadwaita-testing

It just means that currently there is no active maintainer for the package.

Someone may “adopt” the package, and become the new maintainer for it. Or maybe not.

Am I supposed to change to a different libadwaita package?

Is there a specific reason you are using the testing version of the package (which is an AUR package)? There is a “regular” libadwaita package in the Arch repos, and it looks like it’s the same version (ver 1.2.0-1).

EDIT - @dalto was a few seconds faster - and less verbose .

I am guessing that some package I got needed the testing, but will change to regular libadwaita, thank you for this.
