[PRQ#49177] Merge Request for manjaro-gaming-meta
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Dec '24

20 Dec '24

yochananmarqos [1] filed a request to merge manjaro-gaming-meta [2] into arch-gaming-meta [3]: There should be no need for two separate packages for Arch and Manjaro. Either way, this is the Arch User Repository, not the Manjaro User Repository.

[PRQ#51723] Deletion Request for gsettings-desktop-schemas-ubuntu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Apr '24

14 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gsettings-desktop-schemas- ubuntu [2]: This package is not useful at all for Arch Linux. It has been updated just now to Ubuntu's 44.0-1ubuntu1 (2023-03-31) release. Current latest stable Ubuntu version is: 45.0-1ubuntu1 (2023-09-19). Current Arch Linux extra repo version: 45.0-1 (built 2023-09-30, released 2023-10-09). This package just applies Ubuntu's patches from its debian/patches tarball dir. Both 44.0 & 45.0 Ubuntu versions have only one Ubuntu-specific patch in *debian.tar.xz [a]: - ubuntu_lock-on-suspend.patch (fixes an Ubuntu-only bug). Even if this PKGBUILD were promptly maintained, it would functionally just be a duplicate of extra/gsettings-desktop-schemas. But as of now, it mismatches the Arch repo version, and the current track record shows lack of adequate attention by AUR maintainers. [b] There is no package that would benefit from this variant at all on Arch Linux. And nothing on AUR specifically requires it. Therefore I propose to delete it, and it is safe to do so. [a]: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gsettings-desktop- schemas/45.0-1ubuntu1 [b]: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/log/?h=gsettings-desktop- schemas-ubuntu [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gsettings-desktop-schemas-ubuntu/

[PRQ#51701] Deletion Request for d-rats
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Apr '24

14 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for d-rats [2]: Defunct package. Last upstream release came in 2011. [a] Now its deprecated python2-lxml fails its tests with segfault (it's ABI-incompatible with current Arch Linux libxml2/libxslt libs). Also even with python2-lxml installed, this application crashes due to not finding a Python module ('libxml2'). [a]: http://www.d-rats.com/download/v0.3.x/?C=M;O=D [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/d-rats/
