[PRQ#42748] Deletion Request for chicken-dbus
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for chicken-dbus [2]: Abandoned chicken4 binding for dbus from 2015. Incompatible with current chicken v5 in repo. Only the defunct mowedline package depends on it, which has been discontinued 4 years ago and which has not been ported to chicken v5. (Deletion request submitted separately). Therefore this broken package is also not needed. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/chicken-dbus/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for dbus-nosystemd [2]: Orphan; unchanged since 16 months. Many releases behind repo's dbus package. Seems not used anymore: last comment is also from 16 months ago. Safe to delete: nothing depends specifically on this.

[PRQ#42764] Deletion Request for glu-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for glu-git [2]: This abandoned VCS package can be deleted. Mesa glu has not seen any development in the last 2 years, and it is likely that it won't get picked up later, but become deprecated. Also the pkgver() here is non-monotonic: minor point releases won't be seen by automated tools as being newer. Arch extra repo still carries the latest stable version.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-glu-git [2]: This abandoned lib32 VCS package can be deleted. Mesa glu has not seen any development in the last 2 years, and it is likely that it won't get picked up later, but become deprecated. Also the pkgver() here is non-monotonic: minor point releases won't be seen as newer. Arch multilib repo still carries the latest stable version.

[PRQ#42761] Deletion Request for imagemagick-no-hdri
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for imagemagick-no-hdri [2]: Abandoned variant of [extra] repo imagemagick. Not updated in a year, no new comments since Jan 2022. Better to delete. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/imagemagick-no-hdri/

[PRQ#42762] Deletion Request for lib32-imagemagick
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-imagemagick [2]: Orphan package, not updated in a year. Nothing depends on it. Its last functional consumer, lib32-zbar dropped relying on it in Jan 2021. Its other, long before defunct consumer lib32-xine-lib has been deleted sometime in the beginning of 2022. Last comment is from April 2021. It seems safe to remove this package now from AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-imagemagick/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for glues-git [2]: I recommend deleting this partially implemented GL Utilities (GLU) for legacy OpenGL ES 1.3 / 1.5 embedded devices (pre-2007). The code repo has been abandoned since 2013. [a] [a]: https://github.com/lunixbochs/glues [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/glues-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for glshim-git [2]: I recommend deleting this VCS package building an OpenGL 1.x driver port for OpenGL ES 1.x capable embedded devices. It seems this was targeted for the OpenPandora handheld device (2010). Last active development happened in 2016.
