[PRQ#49617] Deletion Request for ceph-pacific
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ceph-pacific [2]: This legacy Ceph (v16) runtime is not needed anymore by any other AUR package, and it depends on aur/librdkafka1, which violates AUR submission guidelines by conflicting with repo's newer librdkafka. I recommend deleting this. No AUR votes or comments, and it was also not updated to the latest point release.

[PRQ#49560] Deletion Request for git-fc
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for git-fc [2]: Hostile, personal fork of git, which resets the versioning and is at v0.1 right now. It is also 1812 commits behind upstream git as of this day. It means this is not a feature-equivalent drop-in for repo's git package, nor for AUR/git-git. The pkgdesc is bogus ("Fork of Junio's git for users"). (Junio C Hamano is upstream Git's chief maintainer/developer since 2005. It is misleading to use his name in the pkgdesc, as this has nothing to do with him, nor with his personal GitHub fork of git, published for technical purposes, not for main development.) Purportedly, this fork only wants to add a new convenience subcommand, 'git stage'. There are upstream-friendly ways of doing that without forking. Many third-party git addons have been created that work with upstream git and expose new, custom git subcommands. There are no AUR comments and this has only 1 vote. AUR packages have to be useful to more than a few users. This particular one does not qualify. Best to delete.

[PRQ#49521] Deletion Request for mariadb-git2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mariadb-git2 [2]: VCS packages based on Git repos have to have pkgnames ending in '-git', not '-git2'. Also, a proper VCS package has to follow a version control system repository's branch, but not be pinned to a specific commit or tag or version, like this PKGBUILD is.

[PRQ#49504] Deletion Request for python-meh-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-meh-git [2]: Broken, unmaintained, unused VCS package from 2018. Has both Python3 and Python2 setuptools as makedepends, for one, single package. Also, the pkgver() function is random, non-monotonic. Not useful to keep. AUR has a python-meh package that needs only one minor version bump.

[PRQ#49845] Deletion Request for lib32-svt-av1
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-svt-av1 [2]: Same reason as written in the deletion request for lib32-libheif (PRQ#49840), with the exception that this had its first git tag in 2019, whereas for the latter, it was in 2018. This should be dropped from AUR for lack of any use case whatsoever. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-svt-av1/

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-libgit2 [2]: See deletion requests PRQ#49840 for lib32-libheif, and PRQ#49841 for lib32-rav1e to see why they shouldn't exist on AUR. Safe to clean up this unneeded library as well after the former ones. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-libgit2/
