[aur-requests] [PRQ#32995] Deletion Request for popcorntime-ce-bin

19 Mar '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for popcorntime-ce-bin [2]: This community fork was discontinued; last release was in 2016. Application starts and loads movie thumbnails, but nothing happens when I click on any of them. Its source-based builds are also broken, build fails because of unsupported and deprecated Node.js modules. Mainline Popcorn Time is also open-source and was recently updated. It works just fine: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/popcorntime https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/popcorntime-bin https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/popcorntime-git There is no benefit in keeping this non-working old version in AUR.
