[aur-requests] [PRQ#36750] Deletion Request for tvdb_api-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for tvdb_api-git [2]: Orphaned python2 library package with a wrong name. Upstream supports Python3, and there already are AUR packages for that: * python-tvdb_api * python-tvdb_api-git This package is not needed by any maintained package. Its sole consumer, tvnamer-git is orphaned and long abandoned. There is a stable tvnamer package on AUR which uses Python 3.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for tvdb3_api-git [2]: Orphaned duplicate of python-tvdb_api-git with a wrong name. The latter is properly maintained so this package is not needed. There are no votes or comments so a simple AUR deletion is recommended. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tvdb3_api-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for tvnamer-git [2]: Orphaned, defunct VCS package, configured to use Python 2. Source URL is now wrong and doesn't work. Package was last updated in 2015. I recommend deleting it, since no one seems to have wanted to adopt it throughout the last 7 years. There is a maintained and up-to-date AUR/tvnamer package, which uses Python 3.

taylo2allen [1] filed a request to merge shortsync [2] into shortsync- git [3]: Accidently forgot to append -git to the name of the package since it is building from a git repo.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36766] Merge Request for elementary-store-monitor-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

yochananmarqos [1] filed a request to merge elementary-store-monitor- git [2] into pantheon-system-monitor-git [3]: Please file an orphan request for pantheon-system-monitor-git instead of creating a duplicate package. The package name makes no sense, anyway.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

Cebtenzzre [1] filed a deletion request for libsigc++-patched [2]: This package has been here long enough that I don't remember why it exists. The commit history is a mess and all it provides is a single patch from an unreleased version.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36770] Deletion Request for firefox-beta-i18n
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for firefox-beta-i18n [2]: Please kindly delete this again. It was deleted on 16 Apr 2022, then re-pushed by @bittin on 20 Apr 2022. Original request for deletion was: https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur- requests/2022-March/069119.html Package has been defunct since Dec 2021, because it had a version- constrained dependency on AUR/firefox-beta which was not updated after Nov 2021. @bittin was the maintainer of this package and a co-maintainer of AUR/firefox-beta but they never updated the latter, only the former. So along with this package, the permanently unmaintained AUR/firefox- beta got deleted on 16 Apr 2022 - original request for the latter was: https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur- requests/2022-March/069118.html But then @bittin re-pushed this obsolete package without recreating and updating the corresponding firefox-beta package. @bittin does not ever respond to any message of mine, but they continue to re-flag this obsolete package as out-of-date whenever a new Firefox Beta is out. Meanwhile there is no firefox-beta on AUR so this package is not needed. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/firefox-beta-i18n/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#36771] Deletion Request for python-wpactrl
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-wpactrl [2]: Orphaned, unneeded Python 2 package (yes, it only packages for Python 2). Last updated in 2018. Also packaging fails because python2-setuptools is missing from makedepends. But it is safe to delete because nothing depends on it.
