[aur-general] Deletion/Orphan request: qt2
It is really outdated, and the maintainer doesn't care about fixing the building problem (easy to fix and the solution has been provided in the comment). So please remove it or at least orphan it so someone can step in and update the PKGBUILD. One side note: I notice there are kdelibs2(fails to build) and kdebase2 on AUR. Does it still make sense to keep them when we are now at KDE4? Is there some general policy regarding to such totally outdated packages? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qt2/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdelibs2/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdebase2/ Regards Jekyll

Thanks. I have updated the PKGBUILD of qt2 and orphaned it again :) Since qt2 is needed by another two packages which can be successfully built, I guess removing qt2 is not good. But kdelibs2 (fails to build) and kdebase2 are really good candidates for removing, IMO. Regards Jekyll
