Spring cleanup '24
Hello everyone, the amount of birds that are chirping in front of my flat make it clear that spring is coming (at least to Heidelberg). :p Therefore it is time to do our annual spring cleanup and free the repos from any leftovers. Please head to https://archlinux.org/devel/reports/unneeded-orphans/ and adopt packages that you'd like to keep in the repos. The devs among us should maybe also have a look at the (few) [orphans in [core]][0]. This is maybe also a good time to re-evaluate the current package set you maintain and disown anything that you've lost interest in so others can properly maintain it either in the repos or the AUR. Feel free to drop a message here if its anything major. I will start dropping packages on 2024-03-17, so please try to have a look at the lists in the next few days. Cheers, gromit [0]: https://archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&repo=Core&q=&maintainer=orphan

Reminder: There is one week left until unneeded orphan packages will be dropped to the AUR. Please have a look at the list again to see if other people orphaned stuff that may be intersting for you. Cheers, gromit

I've adopted the tpm2-* stuff and pesign. Some quick observations is that there are several packages on the list we should probably not be dropping. The ones that come to mind is refind at the very least.

Please keep dictionaries too (aspell-*/hunspell-*/hyphen-*). They are basically zero maintenance and generally useful.

Cool, thanks!

Some of those mentioned packages were mine and for nearly all of them I have either contacted other maintainers to take over (because they were not leaf packages, but not required by any of my other packages anymore) or those are unmaintained or otherwise leaf packages. I'll send a more specific mail later. Best, David -- https://sleepmap.de

Last week I have dropped about 100 packages. If you are interested in any of the below, please make sure that upstream is in fact still alive. In the case of python packages, make sure that those are not leaf packages (not required by any other package).

Hi
I will start dropping packages on 2024-03-17, so please try to have a look at the lists in the next few days.
I've just picked up aspell-it aspell-nl aspell-es hspell hunspell-he hunspell-it hunspell-ro hyphen-it hyphen-nl mythes-it mythes-pl mythes-ro They have zero maintenance but they could be useful to many others packages and being used even not being present as dependencies. -- Fabio Castelli aka Muflone

Hello everyone, I have dropped the unneded orphans as announced earlier. For any interested package maintainers on the AUR (hence the cc to the aur-general list): The packages are now available in the AUR and ready to be adopted, some already have found maintainers :) See the full list below.
