Can somebody delete http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=8306 The homepage has changed and so has the pkgname, I am about to update it as an updated PKGBUILD which would create another package. Currently I am writing in the acpica developer listing to make sure that we'd be allowed to package it.

Thanks. The above only included one tool, when the new one I am updating includes three tools, and according to the acpica mailing list, they are going to include another tool soon.

I'm not a TU or anything, so this is just a personal request. When people request package deletions, could they put the name of the package somewhere in the email (preferably the subject)? Following this thread, it's not possible to tell which package was deleted. I tend to follow this list to track changes / deletions to packages I use, and once the packages are deleted the links to the AUR pages obviously no longer work. Thanks :-) Pete.

Sorry I never think about it, but even if the package is needed, the current package I am requesting to be deleted is junkbuster and it seems to be discontinued On 06/02/2010 05:28 PM, Peter Lewis wrote:

ummm no that is not always the case with you. there are a few pkgs you were wrong about and they were still good. luckily the tu(s) that caught that was on the ball. +1 pkgname with the link.

Don't get me wrong Nathan, I think its great you're reporting pkgs for deletion. I think adding the pkgname with the link will help the process. cheers

Thanks :-) I am trying to do good. It has been sometime since I have done Aur. I did it some time ago and stopped doing it a while. I am starting again, and looking for orphans that I can fix and clean the PKGBUILD up as well. I do search a little for maybe a new home but I guess I miss some :s
