Nan_cykup [1] filed a deletion request for wechat [2]: AUR/wechat has illegally merged[1] AUR/wechat-bin (which is much cleaner than this) and AUR/wechat-bwrap, setting "placeholder" packages[2,3] and trying to force end-users to use AUR/wechat. This maintainer also changed the package's source to "UOS system" version[4], while the official version is available from wechat's official website.[5] (while AUR/wechat-bin respects the origin) Before this user can finally figure out how dependencies work, and respect the final/original source of this software, I think we should remove this package to not break up purity for dependencies.
