[aur-requests] [PRQ#36363] Deletion Request for python2-rq
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-rq [2]: Abandoned package, last updated in 2019. Broken because of missing Py2 dependency (python2-redis). Only two defunct and also-abandoned Py2 modules depends on it on AUR. (Deletion request submitted separately.) There are no user votes or comments. So all in all, it seems safe to delete; that's what I recommend. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-rq/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36362] Deletion Request for python2-rq-dashboard
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-rq-dashboard [2]: Abandoned package, last updated in 2019. Broken because of missing Py2 dependencies (python2-arrow, python2-redis). It seems the upstream project has also been discontinued - at least not kept up to date for Python 3.8+. [a] As nothing depends on this Python 2 module on AUR and because it is broken, I suggest to delete it. Also there are no comments on its page.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36354] Deletion Request for creak-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for creak-git [2]: Orphaned VCS package. Last updated in 2016; last code commit was in Jan 2017. [a] Python 2 based network MITM attack tool, but it mixes Python 2 and 3 packages as dependencies. As there are no user votes or comments, and because it's abandoned and discontinued, I suggest to delete it. Seems not needed by anyone on AUR.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36353] Deletion Request for python-loki
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-loki [2]: Orphaned Python2 (!) package with a wrong name prefix. Last release was in 2011. This was only a Gtk2-based frontend for some Python 2 based CLI network cracking tools. I've tried to build it just in case, but it fails because of undefined references in functions related to DES encryption. (And the errors are not because of LTO or -Werror=format-security; as it fails the same way with these options disabled). Also it does not have a maintainer, and neither does its core dependency, python2-dpkt, used for packet injection. There are zero user comments on this now deprecated, broken and abandoned package. So I think it is safe to delete from AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-loki/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-dpkt-fix [2]: Orphaned package for a legacy fork of the dpkt Python module (active project). The fork has been discontinued after 2013. [a] Its Google Code repo has been deleted. [b] Better to drop this from AUR as well: nothing depends on it and no one seems to need it.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for chapcrack-git [2]: Orphan package for a Python 2 based cracking tool for MS-CHAPv2 handshakes. Development discontinued in 2012. [a] Package is defunct because of missing python2 dependencies. But nothing depends on it and there are no user comments, so I recommend deletion.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36350] Deletion Request for gmvault-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gmvault-git [2]: Orphaned VCS package. Disowned by former owner after my inquiry about the status and need for this package. Discontinued after 2016; only the URL was updated in a plaintext file ('CNAME') in 2022. [a] It was an unofficial Python 2 based GMail (Google Mail) backup client. Package is defunct due to missing core dependency, python2-gdata. I recommend deletion, as it can no longer serve any useful purpose. Does not seem needed by users; last comments are from 2015.
