With the mythtv packages being dropped to the AUR
I must have missed this, and I don't see any other mention of it on this list or on arch-announce or /news or pacman logs. Where or how else should I have been paying attention?
We don't usually publish news advisories when packages are dropped from the repos. It is easy to tell, however, by listing installed packages which are not from the repos: `pacman -Qm`. Some AUR helpers can also list packages that were installed from the AUR. If a package that used to be provided by the repos is now listed as a foreign package by pacman or an AUR package by an AUR helper, then this indicates the package was dropped. :) It was also discussed on arch-dev-public (which anyone can subscribe to for read-only access, or simply look at the public archives) as part of our end-of-year repository cleanup. -- Eli Schwartz
