Hello all,
I am maintainer of a package which has pkgname as python-eyed3 but has
pkgbase as python2-eyed3.
This package was moved from Arch repository to AUR few months back.
The package does not work on python2 but works on python3 and hence I am
trying to remove pkgbase=python2-eyed3 from it, as it gives wrong
impression that package is dependent on python2.
If I remove pkgbase line from PKGBUILD and then try to push the package
(with updated .SRCINFO) it throws the following error:
> git push

There seems to be another "deleted" package called python-eyed3 too.
I cloned it and updated PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO and pushed the changes.
This also throws an error.

! [remote rejected] master -> master (hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to
'ssh://aur.archlinux.org/python-eyed3.git'
Error above does not give much information on why it can not overwrite.
But its possibly because python2-eyed3 creates a pkgname conflict with it.
In short, how do I update the package to remove python2-eyed3 as pkgbase?
Any idea? Please let me know.
Thank you,
Amish
