by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Jan '24

[PRQ#46636] Deletion Request for ms-teams-for-linux-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Jan '24

05 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ms-teams-for-linux-bin [2]: Newly submitted package, duplicates an earlier-created one: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teams-for-linux-bin (The 'ms-' prefix is superfluous and misleading, as both packages are for the unofficial, non-Microsoft-made "Teams for Linux" client.) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ms-teams-for-linux-bin/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Jan '24

05 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for cpdf-bin [2]: Orphan binary package. I recommend deletion, as it is not useful to keep if not updated. There is an actively maintained AUR/cpdf package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/cpdf-bin/

[PRQ#46686] Deletion Request for python-bibtex
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Jan '24

05 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-bibtex [2]: Wrongly named Python2 package from 2016. But not needed: only the broken, unbuildable pybliographer from 2016 depends on it, which I also submitted for deletion (PRQ#46685). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-bibtex/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Jan '24

05 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for hypervc-qt4 [2]: Qt4 GUI for FFMPEG, binary build in disguise from 2008. [a] Project discontinued since that year. Not worth keeping: there are good and maintained alternatives. [a]: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hypervideoconve/files/hypervideoconve/hype… [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/hypervc-qt4/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Jan '24

05 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libretro-pocketsnes-git [2]: Unneeded, unmaintained VCS package from 2015. Upstream no longer exists under this name: the successor project is called snes9x. There are packages for both standalone and LibRetro builds of that in Arch extra repo, as well as git VCS equivalents of those on AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/libretro-pocketsnes-git/
