[aur-requests] [PRQ#32192] Deletion Request for libx32-sqlite
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Feb '22

05 Feb '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libx32-sqlite [2]: Please delete libx32- AUR packages: • Package 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-'. • This package 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).
