Details
Description:
AciiDoc is turning into a markup language specification [1]. That is good news. The Python implementation of the parser/converter is now known as asciidoc-py and the following lines should be changed in the asciidoc PKGBUILD:
pkgname=asciidoc-py replaces=('asciidoc') url='https://asciidoc-py.github.io/'
Additionally, the description could use an update, but I don't know of a good replacement. The GitHub blurb says "Legacy python processor for AsciiDoc" but this is selling the project short [2]. More correct would be "Python processor for legacy rendition of AsciiDoc" [3], but the stated goal of the project is to support modern syntax so that could be misleading too. Maybe the following?
pkgdesc='Python processor for the AsciiDoc text document format'
Note that "provides=('asciidoc')" would be incorrect, as AsciiDoc processors are not interchangeable.
