[PRQ#44951] Deletion Request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-ugly
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-ugly [2]: Broken, orphan legacy lib32 package from 2015. Last user comment is from 2017. As no one stepped up to maintain it since, I recommend deletion. The lib32-gstreamer0.10-bad package already got deleted in Dec 2021 (PRQ#30290) due to being broken and seemingly not used by anyone for many years, just like this one.

[PRQ#44949] Deletion Request for teamviewer11
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for teamviewer11 [2]: Orphan binary for legacy TeamViewer 11 from 2015; package last updated in 2020. Broken, and no one seems to want to adopt it. Last user who commented last year said they were unable to fix it on Arch Linux. So I recommend deletion. AUR has newer TeamViewer packages.

[PRQ#44944] Deletion Request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-good
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-good [2]: Broken legacy lib32 package from 2017. Reported broken since 2018. As no one stepped up to maintain it since, and as after 2018 only my own interaction from 2021 and 2022 can be seen on this page, I recommend deletion. The lib32-gstreamer0.10-bad package already got deleted in Dec 2021 (PRQ#30290) due to being broken and seemingly not used by anyone for many years, just like this one.

[PRQ#44924] Deletion Request for shortwave-bin-hack
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

eclairevoyant [1] filed a deletion request for shortwave-bin-hack [2]: Package without proper justification to exist, as prev maintainer said it is "full of hacks" to try to patch a prebuilt binary, and doesn't build from source (so naming is wrong regardless) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/eclairevoyant/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/shortwave-bin-hack/

[PRQ#44903] Merge Request for transmission-remote-gui
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

xiota [1] filed a request to merge transmission-remote-gui [2] into transgui [3]: Duplicate of `transgui`. Should be merged into `transgui` because that is the upstream project name. https://github.com/transmission- remote-gui/transgui [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/xiota/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/transmission-remote-gui/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/transgui/

[PRQ#48244] Deletion Request for pkgbase
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pkgbase [2]: Bogus pkgbase, named pkgbase. Also there's an AURweb bug when AUR has a PKGBUILD for a pkgbase called pkgbase: other deleted packages' pkgbase URL will refer to this package instead of just showing 404 not found. See for example: https://archive.ph/GyPt1 [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pkgbase/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for glxosd-git [2]: Broken orphan package from 2016. Project discontinued since 2017.
