[aur-requests] [PRQ#34214] Deletion Request for qt5-xmlpatterns-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 03 May '22

03 May '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qt5-xmlpatterns-git [2]: I suggest this legacy VCS package can be deleted. This currently points to official qt 5.15 branch, but that is not the most up-to-date public version. Arch carries extra/qt5-xmlpatterns. That package has KDE's patches on top of the official qt 5.15 branch, with Qt Company's blessing. The patches are actually selectively cherry-picked from official closed-source Qt 5.15 git by KDE. Arch/extra/qt5-xmlpatterns is pretty much the git branch head (latest public version) of v5.15.x Qt libraries. Therefore there is no need for this VCS package, Arch official repo builds very frequently from the aforementioned branch.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 03 May '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for chmsee-git [2]: Orphaned, last updated in 2015. Project discontinued in 2015. Reported broken with newer xulrunner in Sep 2015. This was a tool to view Microsoft's proprietary .CHM help documents. There are working alternatives carried by Arch. Nothing depends on this broken package. Safe to delete.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#34370] Deletion Request for qoauth-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 03 May '22

03 May '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qoauth-git [2]: Orphaned legacy VCS package, last updated in 2015. The source library's development stopped in 2018. Therefore a VCS package is not needed. Arch [community] still carries the latest stable version. This package is broken as is, so there is no benefit in keeping it. Safe to delete; no negative impact.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#34124] Orphan Request for python-torchvision
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 03 May '22

03 May '22

rmsc [1] filed an orphan request for python-torchvision [2]: For many years the package maintainer has refused to fix problems, instead pointing users to install precompiled binaries from archlinuxcn. Whenever a problem is found, the maintainer asks the user to build in a clean chroot. In many of those cases, there are upstream bug reports with patches that could be included. I'm sorry if I somehow am abusing the "orphan" request, but reading the most recent comments put me in a really bad mood.
