[aur-requests] [PRQ#36046] Deletion Request for git-bzr-ng
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Jul '22

30 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for git-bzr-ng [2]: Discontinued in 2013, this likely Python 2 CLI addon for Canonical's bzr doesn't work anymore. The latter also was Python 2 based and its development stopped in 2017. Breezy is the Python 3 based continuation fork, carried by Arch repos. Any addons have to be developed to work with that, not the insecure and defunct Python 2 based bzr. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/git-bzr-ng/

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for bzr-rewrite [2]: Discontinued in 2011, Python 2 based addon for Canonical's bzr. That was also Python 2 based, and its development stopped in 2017.

I suggest to delete this now defunct package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/bzr-rewrite/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36043] Deletion Request for qbzr
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Jul '22

30 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qbzr [2]: Orphaned package, last updated 6 years ago. Legacy Python 2 and Qt4 based frontend for Canonical's Bazaar (bzr), a Python 2 based VCS CLI client discontinued in 2017. This frontend doesn't work with the Python 3 based continuation fork, breezy (carried by Arch repos). So I recommend deleting it. There is at least one alternative GUI for Breezy in Arch repos: zim.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36040] Deletion Request for pac4cli-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Jul '22

30 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pac4cli-git [2]: Development on pac4cli has stopped in 2019. So there is no need anymore for a VCS package. Moreover, this is not even a pure VCS package, as it uses released tarballs as well. Also, this is not a proper package, because it packages multiple separate stable packages into one (pacparser carried by [community], and also a PyPI module called txdbus). I think it is better to delete this jumble of a package. There are only three dependents; they need to adjust their dependency references to continue to work.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Jul '22

30 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-django-localflavor [2]: Python2-django (its dependency) has been deleted, so now this is broken. But not needed by anything on AUR anymore. Also, last updated in 2017. I recommend deleting this package that has become obsolete.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Jul '22

30 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for childsplay-git [2]: Former maintainer disowned the package after my query regarding the need to keep this build alive or not. Sources are unavailable (404). Latest tarball is from 2018. It seems this Python 2 based application has been discontinued. So I suggest to delete this defunct VCS package.
