[PRQ#49694] Deletion Request for python2-pyttsx
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-pyttsx [2]: Unused Python2 package, last released in 2012. [a] It's a frontend for espeak, whose espeak-ng fork is in repo. But this package even fails to link to that. It is not useful to keep on AUR. There are many alternatives, and even this module has many newer forks on PyPI.

[PRQ#49925] Deletion Request for nodejs-mermaid-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for nodejs-mermaid-git [2]: Abandoned, broken, unused VCS package from 2018. Also, pkgname does not conform to Arch Node.js package guidelines: 'nodejs' prefix unneeded for applications, which this is. I recommend deletion: there's no sign anyone on AUR is interested in maintaining it. Latest version is easy to install from npmjs registry or the GitHub repo. AUR has an up-to-date CLI variant of this, called mermaid-cli. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/nodejs-mermaid-git/

[PRQ#49823] Deletion Request for gyp-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gyp-git [2]: Unused, broken Python2 based VCS pkg from 2017. Upstream doesn't create release tags, and seldom pushes commits (only once or twice a year). Extra repo carries the gyp package, and it is like a git build - maintainer updates it from master branch with sufficient frequency.

[PRQ#49576] Deletion Request for python-docker-py-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-docker-py-git [2]: Unmaintained, broken VCS package from 2016. With a name that does not align with repo's stable package (python- docker). The latter name is conformant with Arch Python package guidelines. I recommend deletion, chiefly due to the name mismatch, and because there's no evidence since 2016 that anyone needs this package. The repo build should be adequate to keep. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-docker-py-git/
