Nocifer [1] filed a deletion request for mozc-ut2 [2]: The package hasn't been updated in more than three years; also the 'UT2' dictionary it's based on has been deprecated and removed from upstream since a couple of years ago, in favor of the newer 'UT' dictionary.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#31783] Deletion Request for libx32-libpng
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Jan '22

30 Jan '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libx32-libpng [2]: Please delete libx32- and -x32 AUR packages: • Packages have not been updated in 6 years or more. • Owner replied in email to me, agreeing to the deletion. • In case of libx32- packages, naming violates Arch guidelines*. Name should end with '-x32', not start with 'libx32-'. • Most such packages cannot be built because of already dropped dependencies from AUR. • Even if built, X32 executables won't work with any mainstream kernels from any distros. Only on kernels custom-built with niche x32 ABI support. • Whoever wants to use such a special architecture would not be able to use it from unbuildable, unmaintained 6-year old build scripts from the AUR. But they could use Debian x32 or build Gentoo from scratch for the x32 ABI, or find some IoT-specific distro (X32 ABI *might* be relevant for some low-end IoT devices).
