mpd-pulse (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18722) is deprecated as mpd in [extra] has pulseaudio support built in. I checked this myself by following the instructions here: http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/PulseAudio#Setting_up_MPD and 'pulse' was indeed outputted when running 'mpd --version'.

[aur-general] Deletion Request southerncross-git and mcabber duplicates
by nem 17 Aug '11

17 Aug '11

good day. two weeks ago southerncross github was deleted due halt of development (see reference in [1]). it was orphaned upon and since then nobody came up with a mirror (even though removal was announced 6 weeks ago). so i guess 'southerncross-git' [2] is redundant for now and can be removed. [1] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=956445#p956445 [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=48743 also there are some duplicates of 'mcabber-hg' (which is the source-version of mcabber in [community]) which can be deleted: 'mcabber-devel' [3] is orphaned and flagged out of date for 6 months. 'mcabber-crew-hg' [4] is simply a duplicate. 'mcabber-lm-hg' [5] is outdated (sources are 404). i contacted the maintainer (see mail below) and he agreed for removal of both of his packages, too ([4] and [5]). [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26896 [4] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31147 [5] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26570 regards, nem > On Tue, 16 Aug 2011 10:28:28 +0400 Николай Степаненко > <nixtrian(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Yes.

freedoko-bin32 (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29644). It exists as freedoko (http://aur.archlinux.org/packagesreson.php?.php?ID=15705<http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15705>) and I can't find a reason for a 32-bit only version. No votes, no maintainer and out of date.
