[arch-dev-public] Remaining TODO lists - Part 1: Packages with missing sources
We have a number of TODO lists that have not been completed. The "Packages with missing sources" list [1] was created more than six months ago (2016-08-09). These packages are either genuinely no longer have an upstream source, or are just sitting unmaintained in our repos. Either way, the should not be in our repos. I will remove any package still on that list in a week. Allan [1] https://www.archlinux.org/todo/packages-with-missing-sources/

I set 'archboot' to completed (it was building fine) and fixed the 'license' sources.

I am going to move wyrd to the AUR, unless there are any objections. There has not been any release for ~4 years and the upstream website is gone. I also plan on dropping both esmtp and libesmtp, once balsa no longer depends on it (the current development snapshot no longer depends on libesmtp already, see [1]).

I removed all of them and hsolink which depended on ozerocdoff.
