I just noticed that the package `atom-editor` has been removed from the AUR (presumably replaced with this one) because it stopped being updated. Is there any way to mark this package as a replacement for `atom-editor` so people are notified that this is the new version?
This task depends upon

I don't really like the idea of marking it as a replacement of something that was never official and doesn't exist anymore.

I think it's very good ideat to mark it as replacement. When package is moved from AUR to community (which seems to be this case), package should be marked as replacement.

I was using the atom-editor package and was wondering what happened that it's outdated and not updated anymore, I had to manually search and look for alternative which is this package.
All instalations of atom-editor should be automatically replaced by this package.
