[aur-general] Deletion Request
by Adam Hani Schakaki 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

Hello, I request deleting of my package cairo-compmgr-min [1] since it does not have any advantages compared to cairo-compmgr anymore. I already wrote a comment to that. Anyway, I found a translation error for German. There is written "Paket hochladen" ("Upload package") instead of "Antworten" ("Answer") or something like that when writing a comment on the AUR. Thanks in advance for deleting/fixing Adam Hani Schakaki [1] http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36411

[aur-general] Package deletion request
by Gereon Schomber 23 Sep '10

Hi, I am the former maintainer of urbanterror-data that was adopted into [community]. However, my package urbanterror-client (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21494) still exists and is useless because there is urbanterror in community which serves the same purpose (I guess). Therefore I request my package to be deleted. Best Regards Gereon Schomber

by Det 23 Sep '10

23 Sep '10

Hi, all of you nice people right there! Just paddled through 'kernel26' search results in AUR and obsolete/delete results with google and here's what I found (there's a lot more left, though) - all this stuff is left by people asking for the removal of the package in either the comment section or the pkgdesc, unaware of the AUR Mailing List or the IRC channel. Maybe there just should be a simple *remove* button: akonadi-caldav-svn: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34613 gpacman-git: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34987 gstreamer0.10-farsight: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19750 haskell-bindings-common: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27532 kdevelop-extra-plugins-git-git: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=37520 kpdf2: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=12299 (though, maybe not?) kernel26-ck1: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39490 kernel26-vanilla-git: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40266 network-manager-applet-notify-osd: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34282 nvidia-173xx-ice: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21059 nvidia-173xx-utils-xorg17: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38504 nvidia-173xx-utils-xorg18: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39101 nvidia-173xx-xorg17: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38505 nvidia-173xx-xorg18: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39191 nvidia-96xx-utils-xorg18: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39005 nvidia-96xx-xorg18: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39006 nvidia-opencl: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31413 notify-osd-clickthrough-patch: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36178 otrtool-git: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40775 pcsxr-alsa: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30663 rxvt-url-yank: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17263 sopcast-player64: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=35480 ttf-anonymous: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13389 There's also quite huge amount of all that other old kernel26/nvidia/etc. stuff but I guess they are going to stay.. :/.
