Hi,
This is a cleanup on "C Compiler for PIC24 MCUs and dsPIC DSCs" packages in aur.
Please delete [1]hitech-dspicc-bin, it's only needed for really old code.
But it is still working ? then i would rather keep it in.
Yes, still working, I only used it to test some code before converting it to other compiler, microchip bought hitech but now let compiler to die, it never had any vote so I don't even know if someone use it. So, still working, if you think it should not be deleted, for me I see no problem.
Please merge [2]microchip-mplabc30_bin into [3]microchip-mplabxc16-bin, c30 was replaced by XC16, I keep it for compability and because XC16 is too new, but since C30 don't like to work anymore with arch glibc is better simple move on to XC16.
microchip-mplabc30_bin is also still working fine ? does the package microchip-mplabxc16-bin provide all the same functionallity ? C30 was broken for several times, I always find I way to keep it running, but it's broken again and I think it's time to move on, because XC16 is just a new version of C30 with very small changes, so basically a rename from C30 to XC16. Almost 100% of C30 code compile in XC16 without any change. Also microchip never made C30 for Linux official, but XC16 was released was a replacement for C30 with official support for Win/Linux/Mac.
Thanks, keep the good work.

merged microchip-mplabc30_bin into microchip-mplabxc16-bin thx for the explanation should hitech-dspicc-bin go foobar, you can file again for deletion thx --Ike
