[PRQ#48772] Deletion Request for gawk-fake
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gawk-fake [2]: Unused shim package with a wrong, misleading name. core/gawk is part of base and base-devel: it should not be "faked out" on an Arch Linux installation. Better to delete, and safe to do so. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gawk-fake/

[PRQ#47293] Deletion Request for libgnome-media-profiles
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libgnome-media-profiles [2]: Discontinued module from 2011, likely for GNOME 3. Broken because its makedepend, gnome-doc-utils fails to build since years. But it seems it is not needed. It uses gstreamer0.10, no longer part of GNOME desktop. And also GNOME 3 is deprecated.

[PRQ#46324] Deletion Request for scipion-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Nov '23

14 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for scipion-git [2]: Orphan VCS package for a niche scientific tool. Its upstream was developed only until 2020. [a] Then in April this year, just before archiving the repo, a developer added a remark in readme that this is an old, unused code base, and included a link pointing to the website. [b] As it turns out, the monorepo has been split into three separate application components, plus a fourth which is a Python-based installer. Not useful to keep this deprecated package.
