apm unpublish assistance

[entozoon]

Having the same issue a lot of people are having whereby I can't unpublish / publish to my own package.
What I did was (briefly):

create package and git push
apm publish minor
delete my git repo in a fit of rage
recreate git repo with same name
apm publish minor
- Git tag not found
apm unpublish
- Unauthorized

So my package is dead - can't update or remove it, pretty embarrassing.

I (now) understand the packages are inextricably linked to the original repo for whatever reason but can someone help me .. extrict it?
extricate*

Thanks in advance

Any update on this?
It seems to me that atom packages should automatically unpublish if their parent github repo is deleted, if they are indeed so permanently linked

@entozoon What is the name of your package?

Hi there @lee-dohm, thanks for the reply. It's:
https://atom.io/packages/lorem-gibson

Is there anything I can do here @lee-dohm / @50Wliu ?
The package is dead in the water and needs whippin' out.
