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is the source-version of mcabber in [community]) which can be deleted: 'mcabber-devel' [3] is orphaned and flagged out of date for 6 months.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 'mcabber-lm-hg' [5] is outdated (sources are 404).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]).

hej!

i saw that three of your packages in the AUR are basically the same of which one is already outdated, too.

mcabber-lm-hg [1] is outdated (404). mcabber-crew-hg [2] and mcabber-hg [3] are basically the same (different repo). i find all PKGBUILDS redundant because mcabber is in [community] and up to date. is there any reason to keep them in AUR?
