Hi Bence, Could you maybe adopt AUR/perl-moosex-traits and fix its packaging? Otherwise there seem to be no other users who would use that and this library, and these two packages are the only remaining holdovers that are tied to the obsolete, badly packaged AUR/perl-test-use-ok that is EOL as a dist since 2012 and whose later version is carried by Arch/core/perl. I myself do not use any of these packages, that's why I opted not to adopt and correct perl-moosex-traits. Please let me know of your decision on whether you want to keep and fix perl-moosex-traits along with keeping perl-parse-method-signatures, or if you choose not to adopt and adjust the former, in which case we can delete both. Thank you in advance for your answer, Marcell Meszaros / MarsSeed
