[PRQ#51978] Deletion Request for mesa-steamos
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Dec '23

10 Dec '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mesa-steamos [2]: Submitter has disowned this personal fork of mesa, which is now broken, unbuildable. It uses this fork's "radeonsi-3.4.0-2" release tag from Dec 14, 2022. [a] Submitter's GitHub fork has not been updated since March, 2023, [b] and the same is true for this AUR package. Earlier, back in June 2023, I've submitted deletion request PRQ#43239 [c] for this, for which former owner replied with a lengthy feedback about their rationale and plans for this package. So I've revoked that request. But nothing happened since that time, other then their disowning the AUR build. Best to delete, no usefulness, fork not maintained, fails to build, and name is confusing as well. * (* SteamOS 3 is Valve's fork of Arch Linux, but it is customized further for the Steam Deck hardware, and the latter's OS is sometimes called 'Steam Deck OS'. The two are not the same. But submitter intended 'mesa-steamos' to target the 'Steam Deck OS' only, which is actually an old version of Arch Linux, not compatible with current Arch Linux toolchain and runtime versions.)

[PRQ#52004] Deletion Request for xssmap

10 Dec '23

aminvakil [1] filed a deletion request for xssmap [2]: Best put by MarsSeed (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xssmap#comment-945623) Not viable to keep this, as it's broken, and upstream hasn't been maintained since 3.5+ years ago. Also there are no votes, and apart from my messages, only submitter commented, in 2020 and 2021. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/aminvakil/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/xssmap/

[PRQ#51988] Merge Request for modsecurity
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Dec '23

10 Dec '23

marcool04 [1] filed a request to merge modsecurity [2] into modsecurity-git [3]: The `modsecurity` v3.x.x branch is packaged as `libmodsecurity` in extra [1]. This does differ from `modsecurity` v2.x.x, which I provide a PKGBUILD for as `modsecurity2` in the AUR [2]. There is now no need for this `modsecurity` PKGBUILD, however a `modsecurity-git` PKGBUILD could be useful for those who wish to stay up to date with the latest commits on the v3 branch. I have created that `modsecurity-git` PKGBUILD and feel it would make sense to merge this package into the `-git` one, but if you feel it is better to delete `modsecurity` from AUR, then that is fine by me also. I have already pushed `modsecurity` git history to `modsecurity-git`. Regards, Mark.

[PRQ#52062] Deletion Request for pyside2-tools-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Dec '23

10 Dec '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pyside2-tools-git [2]: Broken, EOL Qt5 based Python tools; currently linked upstream repo no longer exists (404). Useless to keep this package. Extra repo still carries the stable pyside2-tools (whose upstream is in minimal maintenance mode).
