I sent mail to the lzmautils-devel maintainer before I asked for
the repocopy, but didn't get a reply.

That said, the time line is like this:

* I created the lzmautils port.  I purposely did not update
  it to a development version and was waiting for a stable release.
* Somebody spawned off lzmautils-devel.  I wasn't consulted and would
  have objected.
* Now it was time for me to update (and move) lzmautils to xz,
  superseding lzmautils-devel as a side effect.
