I think it’s reasonable that he doesn’t. He doesn’t use Arch (or any Linux flavor), so isn’t aware of how packaging for Arch works. I’m guessing someone submitted the PKGBUILD and he just accepted it, and now people come to him for support instead of the person who submitted it.
I 100% agree w/ removing the PKGBUILD, but he doesn’t need to go out of his way to remove Linux support. Just state that the project doesn’t officially support Linux, but is open to Linux-specific bug fixes. Then if anyone complains about a distro-specific issue, close the issue and move on. If someone opens what seems to be a legitimate bug w/ Linux, leave it open and move on.
That’s really all the community should expect here.
