[aur-requests] [PRQ#31788] Deletion Request for lib32-schroedinger
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Oct '23

08 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-schroedinger [2]: This 10+ year old library is not needed anymore. (Actually the major release v1.0 is from 2008.) Even Arch has orphaned it. Current FFMPEG/libavcodec source includes a better alternative of the Dirac codec (which is Schroedinger's purpose as well). But FFMPEG's code has been maintained and improved since. (Its current Dirac codec actually is based on an improved version called SMPTE VC-2, previously known as BBC Dirac Pro.) For its only AUR dependent, lib32-ffmpeg-semifull-git, I've already submitted a deletion request, since that is completely dead, with 15+ missing dependencies. (And that package is not needed anyway, as there are working and up-to-date lib32-ffmpeg AUR packages.)

begin-theadventu [1] filed a request to merge youtube-dl-gui-git [2] into yt-dlg-git [3]: oleksis' fork is named as yt-dlg in releases: https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui/releases youtube-dl-gui-git should be either deleted or switched to this: https://github.com/StefanLobbenmeier/youtube-dl-gui [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/begin-theadventu/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/youtube-dl-gui-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/yt-dlg-git/

[PRQ#40685] Merge Request for voxatron
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Jun '23

21 Jun '23

HTV04 [1] filed a request to merge voxatron [2] into voxatron-hib [3]: The package name is a little misleading because it requires hib- dlagent to download Voxatron via Humble Bundle. The package under this name should instead support the typical distribution method of Voxatron, a zip file that can be obtained from the official site, lexaloffle.com, as well as Humble Bundle. However, the method this package currently uses is still useful for hib-dlagent users, so I created a separate package, voxatron-hib, which contains all of the files from this package.

[PRQ#40646] Merge Request for clash-for-windows-chinese
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Jun '23

19 Jun '23

yupoi [1] filed a request to merge clash-for-windows-chinese [2] into clash-for-windows-chinese-git [3]: Since the original author has not updated for a long time, the software package has fallen behind the upstream 2 versions. It is hoped that the software packages can be merged to ensure that Chinese users can use the latest Clash for windows Chinese version. (Due to my poor English level, I used translation software, please understand) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/yupoi/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/clash-for-windows-chinese/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/clash-for-windows-chinese-git/

[PRQ#40465] Merge Request for python-crontab
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Jun '23

19 Jun '23

yochananmarqos [1] filed a request to merge python-crontab [2] into python-python-crontab [3]: The python-crontab AUR package should have been called python-python- crontab as the Python module is called python_crontab. I've created python-python-crontab to replace it. Nothing depends on crontab, only python_crontab. I'll contact the maintainers of the packages that depend on the current python-crontab to let them know they should depend on python- python-crontab. If crontab is ever needed, python-crontab can be resurrected from the archive to use it. python_crontab module: https://pypi.org/project/python-crontab/ crontab module: https://pypi.org/project/crontab [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/yochananmarqos/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-crontab/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-python-crontab/

[PRQ#40765] Deletion Request for siyuan
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Jun '23

16 Jun '23

phnx47 [1] filed a deletion request for siyuan [2]: Outdated since 2021. This package use AppImage and I already see replacement for this: `siyuan-appimage`. Don't know why need appimage package when exists binary `siyuan-note-bin` which provides `siyuan-note`. I guess if someone wants build it from source, should name it `siyuan-note`. I believe better to delete `siyuan`. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/phnx47/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/siyuan/
