[PRQ#48757] Deletion Request for r352
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for r352 [2]: Unneeded, unmaintained legacy version of repo's 'r'. The pkgname does not conform to Arch package guidelines, which suggest to attach only the major version number to the name, which in this case is 3, not three hundred and fifty two (pkgname should have been either r3.5.2 or r-3.5.2, or a shorter variant of that). Also this conflicts with repo's r pkg, and as such, it violates the AUR submission guidelines. Safe to delete: no other builds on AUR requires this.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for yad-gtk2 [2]: Proposal to delete this, as nothing depends on this old gtk2 variant, and because there's no gtk2 based desktop environment around anymore. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/yad-gtk2/

[PRQ#49024] Deletion Request for jdk-lts
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for jdk-lts [2]: I don't think it makes sense to keep this package, since there are multiple LTS versions of Oracle's JRE/JDK. (Currently 8, 11, 17, 21.) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/jdk-lts/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libvterm-0.1 [2]: Unneeded legacy version of extra/libvterm. Nothing depends on it specifically. Conflicts with repo's package. So this build is not allowed to be kept as per AUR submission guidelines. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/libvterm-0.1/

[PRQ#48914] Deletion Request for google-chinese-handwriting-ime
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for google-chinese-handwriting- ime [2]: Defunct app, not maintained since 2019. PKGBUILD badly made, uses cp in package(), so it does not set access permission and file ownership correctly. Also no license is declared. Upstream's name actually infringes on Alphabet Inc.'s Google trademark. The project has no relation to or license from Alphabet and/or Google.

[PRQ#49058] Deletion Request for python-numpy-openblas
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-numpy-openblas [2]: Unmaintained, unused package. Now extra repo carries the full openblas-lapack suite in the form of the 'blas-openblas' package, and repo's python-numpy optdepends on that. This AUR package was useful earlier, because the full openblas-lapack was only available from AUR before June 14, 2023. Now it is not the case; users who want to use the optimized OpenBLAS with NumPy are fully served by the repo packages.

[PRQ#48987] Deletion Request for openstack-horizon
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openstack-horizon [2]: Broken, unmaintained package, last updated in 2021-09. Owner MIA since 1.5+ year. Depends on many similarly outdated, defunct modules from same owner, including many dual Python2/Python3 packages with missing or defunct dependencies. Not useful to keep on AUR. 0 votes/comments. Upstream is very actively developed, and frequently pushes updates to PyPI, from where users can easily install the latest version.

[PRQ#48979] Deletion Request for openstack-tempest
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openstack-tempest [2]: Unmaintained integration testing toolkit from 2021-09. Owner MIA since 1.5+ year. Not useful to keep on AUR. 0 votes/comments. Safe to delete, along with its defunct consumer, openstack-keystone, which is also long-abandoned and unused (deletion request: PRQ#48978). Upstream is very actively developed, and frequently pushes updates to PyPI, from where users can easily install the latest version of any OpenStack components.
