[aur-requests] [PRQ#33480] Deletion Request for waiho.app
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Apr '22

07 Apr '22

Beebo [1] filed a deletion request for waiho.app [2]: It seems that the homepage and upstream source is down for good. Since the app doesn't compile without patches and has been unmaintained for the past *several* years, I think that the best option is to remove the package.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#33479] Deletion Request for nvidia-dkms-performance
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Apr '22

07 Apr '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for nvidia-dkms-performance [2]: Please delete this abandoned package, as per suggestion of its former maintainer. This is a binary-hacked / hex-patched NVIDIA driver and is unsafe. That is why its creator has abandoned it. Instead they have created a new AUR/nvidia-tweaks package which fine-tunes the NVIDIA driver safely via modprobe config files. Quote verbatim from former package owner: " Cabopust commented on 2021-10-17 13:39 (CEST) (edited on 2021-10-17 13:40 (CEST) by Cabopust) I am discontinuing support for this package. As I wrote below, I do not see the point of this package and it also brought a lot of pain to users with erroneous updates. I recommend that all users uninstall this package and not return to it again. As an alternative I created a new package nvidia-tweaks ( https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-tweaks/ ) which does all the same optimizations made in this package, but in a more correct way without many problems. The nvidia-tweaks package does not care where you get the driver modules from or what version they are, it just does it through modprobe configuration files."

[aur-requests] [PRQ#33452] Deletion Request for spotify-ripper-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Apr '22

07 Apr '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for spotify-ripper-git [2]: I suggest deleting this old and broken package. Project discontinued in 2016. Two Python 2 based dependencies have already been deleted. Maintainer didn't respond since 2021-07 when getting a comment about a dependency being deleted. This tool is not essential at all. Surely there are other methods of piracy to rip Spotify music, if that's someone's thing. Safe to delete, nothing depends on it.
