[aur-requests] [PRQ#33523] Orphan Request for uncrustify-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Apr '22

16 Apr '22

alex.henrie [1] filed an orphan request for uncrustify-git [2]: This package does not build anymore because the source URL needs to be updated. The current maintainer is not responding, but I would be happy to adopt the package myself. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/alex.henrie/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/uncrustify-git/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#33512] Deletion Request for firefox-beta-i18n
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Apr '22

16 Apr '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for firefox-beta-i18n [2]: Duplicates Arch/community/firefox-developer-edition-i18n. Yes, Firefox Developer Edition is Firefox Beta, with minimal differences: * dark theme by default (can be changed) * a few small extra buttons on toolbar * a separate Firefox profile that doesn't overwrite that of the regular Firefox, so the two can be installed side-by-side. This package is not properly maintained. It has been updated on 2022-03-18 to v99.0b5-1, but its mandatory dependency, firefox-beta>=99.0b5 has not seen an update since 2021-11-04. Therefore this package is not currently installable. It does not instill confidence when such a mismatch is created, especially since this language pack has the same maintainer as the main AUR/firefox-beta. There are no user comments, only one from 2018. It shows this AUR duplicate is not in high demand. This package is not useful to be in AUR. I have already submitted a deletion request for AUR/firefox-beta because that one is even potentially harmful, it can overwrite the user's default Firefox stable profile (whereas Firefox Developer Edition is a beta that leaves the user's default stable profile intact).

[aur-requests] [PRQ#33511] Deletion Request for firefox-beta
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Apr '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for firefox-beta [2]: Duplicates Arch/community/firefox-developer-edition. Yes, Firefox Developer Edition is Firefox Beta, with minimal differences: * dark theme by default (can be changed) * a few extra toolbar buttons * a separate Firefox profile that doesn't overwrite that of the regular Firefox, so the two can be installed side-by-side. This package is not regularly maintained; last update was on 2021-11-04. This package should conflict with 'firefox', but it doesn't. It shows that the creator/maintainer of this package didn't do their due diligence or was not really aware of the implications of creating this package. There is a good reason why Firefox Developer Edition was the right choice to be added to Arch [community] repo instead of Beta, because the former is the "side-by-side" install of Beta and leaves the user's regular Firefox profile intact. (But the user can import their regular profile to the Developer Edition if they so choose.) All in all this package is not useful to be in AUR and it is not properly configured and not safe wrt default Firefox user profiles.

jonathon [1] filed a request to merge firefox-esr-i18n [2] into firefox-esr [3]: This can be maintained as a split package and so easily kept in sync.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#33665] Deletion Request for genkernel-next-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Apr '22

07 Apr '22

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for genkernel-next-git [2]: It seems this project is dead. I found some forums posts saying so (like this one [1]) and considering that it is orphan and last upstream commit was over 3 years ago, that might be right (though I could find anything official). Besides, Sabayon linux was rebranded as MocaccinoOS.
