[aur-requests] [PRQ#36289] Deletion Request for orocos-kdl-python2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for orocos-kdl-python2 [2]: Abandoned Python 2 bindings package, last updated 4 years ago. Not needed by anything, and it is broken because its seemingly Qt3-related python2-sip package has not had any sources available for years. The latest version of this library is recommended to be used with Python 3. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/orocos-kdl-python2/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36288] Deletion Request for soundcli
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for soundcli [2]: Package flagged as broken since 2016 due to missing dependencies. Source has been deleted ("yanked") from RubyGems.org. [a] Not even the direct gem URL can be used to download the source. [b] This was a "CLI client for soundcloud". But as it is discontinued/deprecated and seems not salvageable, I recommend deleting it.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36283] Deletion Request for spotify-connect-web
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for spotify-connect-web [2]: Python 2 based Git VCS package without a proper name suffix. Last updated in 2017. Development discontinued in 2018. [a] This ARM 32-bit package was a third-party web client for Spotify, to be used with the old Raspberry Pi 2, based on cracking and reverse- engineering the proprietary Spotify Connect protocol. [b] [c] Development in the hacked Spotify library repo has also been discontinued since 2019. [d] Depends on four missing + one broken Python 2 package, so it is unbuildable and unusable. Maintainer has not responded to @carlosal1015's ping about it in Feb 2022. I recommend to delete this deprecated hacked client for Spotify, as it has been unmaintained and defunct for years now. [a] https://github.com/Fornoth/spotify-connect-web [b] https://github.com/librespot-org/spotify-connect-resources#readme [c] see 'libspotify_embedded_shared.so' in source array [d] https://github.com/librespot-org/spotify-connect-resources [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/spotify-connect-web/
