by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Jun '22

18 Jun '22

sainnhe [1] filed a deletion request for capitaine-cursors-full-git [2]: Since I decided o maintain my own fork, this package should be renamed. "capitaine-cursors-full-git" is a bit confused, I'm going to create a package named "capitaine-cursors-sainnhe-git".

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35095] Deletion Request for fftw-mpi
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Jun '22

18 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for fftw-mpi [2]: I suggest this package is not needed anymore, as Arch/extra/fftw enables mpi and openmp since 19 Jan 2020 (v3.3.8) [1] (Arch fftw is v3.3.10, this package is v3.3.9; flagged out-of-date since 2021-10-24.) [1]: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit- packages/commit/b621e65?diff=split As noted in comment by jadelord on 2020-02-03, this package provides static libraries (*.a) whereas extra/fftw does not. But after thorough search on AUR, I was unable to find any package that would specifically need static libs. And all AUR dependents except two depend on fftw, not this package. The two dependents are only choosing this because of mpi, not because of static libs. (I've notified both maintainers to switch their packages to fftw.) So it is reasonable to say this package can safely be deleted. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/fftw-mpi/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35093] Deletion Request for python2-meep-bzr
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Jun '22

18 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-meep-bzr [2]: Orphaned Python 2 based Bazaar VCS package. Last updated: 2017. Not needed because source code development has moved to GitHub several years ago. Also this does not work because of already dropped Python 2 based dependencies. Nothing depends on it and there are no user comments, so it's safe to delete. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-meep-bzr/

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-meep [2]: Orphaned Python 2 based package. Last updated 5 years ago, in 2017. This does not work because of already dropped Python 2 based dependencies. But no users complained; there are no comments at all. Also nothing depends on it so it's safe to delete. There are Python 3 based alternatives on AUR (stable + VCS). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-meep/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35075] Deletion Request for ubo-extra-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Jun '22

18 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ubo-extra-git [2]: Source GitHub repository last updated in 2020, and it is archived (made read-only), so the project is deprecated. Not exactly sure what was the "extra" companion part to uBlock Origin the browser addon. The latter is still alive and kicking. :) I propose to delete this VCS package for the discontinued "extras". Safe to drop; nothin depends on it. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ubo-extra-git/
