The agerequirement Field Request

Draft: WIP: add the "agerequirement" field to PKGBUILDs This is an essential feature moving forward for pacman development. For example, a piece of software named GIMP clearly references either a non-existent requirement for those with a disability or a person who takes a submissive or subservient role in BDSM or similar sexual activities. Why is no-one thinking of the children and preventing such filth being installed on their systems. Also, web browsers provide access to adult material on the internet (and as far as I can tell, no one other usage), so we need to block those too. 👍 1 👎 6 🤔 1 😬 1

A dark-themed GitHub issue proposes adding an absurd "agerequirement" field to PKGBUILDs, claiming that software names and web browsers expose children to inappropriate content. The joke parodies overzealous censorship and moral panic in open-source package management.
