[PRQ#42463] Deletion Request for sdl2-nox-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sdl2-nox-git [2]: Orphaned variant VCS package for SDL2. Last updated a year ago. Upstream won't continue feature development for SDL2, so there is no more crucial need for a rolling version package. Also in its current state, it will download the incorrect branch. So it is not useful to keep on AUR as-is. There is a total lack of interest in this: 0 comments, 0 votes. There is still an SDL2-nox package on AUR if someone wants a stable build.

[PRQ#42430] Deletion Request for xml-language-server-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xml-language-server-git [2]: Java based VCS package for a project that's been discontinued since 2020. [a] The PKGBUILD has last been updated in 2018 and it is not conformant anymore with current Arch Java package guidelines. But this outdated XML language server is not needed: AUR has the 'lemminx' package which is a new and currently developed XML language server, hosted by the Eclipse foundation's GitHub repo.

[PRQ#42399] Deletion Request for avogadro2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for avogadro2 [2]: Duplicate of AUR/avogadroapp: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/avogadroapp The latter has been longer on AUR, since 2020, this one was uploaded in 2022. The earlier package is more proper because the name of the source repo itself is avogadroapp. Whereas "Avogadro 2" is the umbrella name of the whole project, consisting of separate repositories for the library and the application. Both packages are up-to-date (v1.97.0). This package has 0 votes and only 1 user comment, complaining about a build error. There are no dependent packages relying on this name.

[PRQ#42425] Deletion Request for python-treecorr-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-treecorr-git [2]: Wrong VCS package, abandoned since years. It was badly configured so it hasn't built the latest version of the code but the latest stable branch. Former maintainer is MIA since 2020 at least when it comes to updating their packages. Better to delete this defunct package There is a maintained and up-to-date AUR/python-treecorr package.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for waterfox-g3-git [2]: Obsolete VCS package. Waterfox G3 version line is out of development since October 6, 2021. [a] The last G3 version was released on September 15, 2021. [b] This package is defunct since March 2022 because of the unsupported GitHub URL protocol it uses. But no one complained.

[PRQ#42362] Deletion Request for gyroflow-appimage
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gyroflow-appimage [2]: I suggest to delete this unmaintained package. Uploaded in Feb 2022 and never updated. Flagged out-of-date 100+ days ago. It does not declare any dependencies even though it does need some. But it is not actually needed, as the following alternative is up-to- date: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gyroflow-bin There also exist source-build packages for this: -AUR/gyroflow -AUR/gyroflow-git [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gyroflow-appimage/
