I think this issue is now resolved and can be closed since @xcodevn yanked gmp
.
from rust-gmp.
Oh, interesting. I haven't been aware of gmp
, somebody else published that. I'm only the owner of rust-gmp
.

I've investigated this issue, findings are:
- March 2014 @fizyk20 publishes v0.3.0 under package name
rust-gmp
- July 2016: Someone called xcodevn publishes v0.3.1 under package name
gmp
- xcodevn disappeared off of github or crates.io 4 years ago, there is an xcodevn on reddit so I messaged him to see if its the same person.
It would be nice to get gmp
deleted from crates.io. If I can manage that would you consider re-publishing this as gmp
@fizyk20? (Seems like a nice convention to call the repo rust-foo
and the package plain foo
.)
EDIT: Oooh, you use #![crate_name = "gmp"]
to imitate this behaviour - boy that was confusing me.

Hi! I'm xcodevn the owner of gmp
package on crates.io
. It seems that 4 years ago, I cloned fizyk20 repo and published it on crates.io
. I don't remember why did I do that but it is my fault.
I've just tried to delete gmp
package but not successful, crates.io
prevents the deletion of packages to avoid dependency problems. So I've yanked the package instead! If anyone knows how to delete a package on crates.io
, please let me know.
I'm also happy to transfer the ownership to @fizyk20, so this repo can be published under gmp
name if @fizyk20 wants to do so.

Legend, thanks! I read that we can contact the humans at crates.io and they might fix it up for us, if that's what we want to do.

Avoiding dependency problems is a good reason to prevent deletion of packages! We shouldn’t request to override that just to make things tidier (nor, I expect, would such a request be approved).

Is it in anyone's best interest to be depending on a stale crate (here v0.3.1), possibly accidentally? Wouldn't it be better for users of gmp
if this crate was yanked to force them to either update or depend on a version where they can control more than just a single version?
