Don't build bin package

[carlsmedstad]

This package has a high probability of conflicting with another package due to the generic name. It is also redundant since the executable now lives in aesara/bin/.

Will this affect the installation/setup of the aesara-cache command-line tool? That's the only thing I'm aware of in the bin directory.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We are already aware, and we are already planning to deprecate this. See #1382.

In short, it's been this way for years without anyone complaining. But since it's a terrible structure, we're already phasing it out. Since the beginning of the year, the bin package has been a pointer to aesara.bin with a deprecation warning, in order to give time to people to fix anything that relies on it.

Given that it's been this way for years without anyone noticing, I'm inclined to think that suddenly removing it is riskier than leaving it in some more months.

Once we decide that enough time has passed (or that it is so offensive that we should delete it immediately), then instead of removing it from the wheel packages, we should delete it entirely. (I've been meaning to prepare a draft PR.)

Got it. Thanks for the quick reply.

I'll patch away the bin package in the AUR package in the meantime.

@carlsmedstad, sounds good, thanks a lot!!!

Closing this in favor of #1469
