[PRQ#49545] Deletion Request for librenms
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Nov '23

13 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for librenms [2]: Abandoned, broken package from 2020. As per former maintainer's explanation in the pinned comment, it is very difficult to make and keep this working, due to specific dependency constraints. It is better to install it in a Docker container, as last user comment suggests. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/librenms/

[PRQ#49538] Deletion Request for keira3
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Nov '23

13 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for keira3 [2]: Unmaintained, unused OOD foreign binary based package from 2021 for an open-source application. There is no evidence that this is in much demand on AUR. Better to delete. Upstream publishes AppImage and snap binary releases, so anyone can easily install the latest version, and can even manage those installations and follow updates by using format-specific package managers.

[PRQ#49472] Deletion Request for audacity-wxgtk2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Nov '23

13 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for audacity-wxgtk2 [2]: Broken, abandoned, outdated variant of repo's audacity. Several issues have been reported in AUR comments since Jan 2023, none of which have been resolved. It seems it's best if people use another build of audacity, like the one in extra repo.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Nov '23

[PRQ#49260] Deletion Request for python-pytorch_cluster
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Nov '23

13 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pytorch_cluster [2]: Unused, abandoned package from 2021. Should have been named 'python-torch-cluster'. [a] It's a simple package, so it's easy to resubmit under the correct name, if it turns out to be needed by someone. As of now, it doesn't seem to be the case. [a]: https://pypi.org/project/torch-cluster/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-pytorch_cluster/
