[PRQ#43147] Deletion Request for amule-adnza-daemon-svn
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for amule-adnza-daemon-svn [2]: Development on this fork of Amule has stopped since 2019. [a] (Last release was in 2012.) I think keeping this package is not needed. Someone reported on the AUR/amule-adnza package page in 2019 that both that and this variant fails to build. (Andt that was the last comment there. As for this package, only maintainer left one comment in 2016.) [a]: https://sourceforge.net/p/amule-adunanza/code/599/log/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/amule-adnza-daemon-svn/

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-zipstream [2]: Discontinued since 2016. [a] Was only tested with up to Python 3.5.

[PRQ#43138] Deletion Request for pcsclite-nopy
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pcsclite-nopy [2]: 16-months outdated duplicate of repo package: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/pcsclite/ Makes the build with Python, just then declares python runtime dependency as optional. But that is the exact same thing repo's pcsclite does. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pcsclite-nopy/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pydirl [2]: Unmaintained Py2/Py3 dual package, last updated in 2017. Project discontinued since that time. [a] "simple static webserver and directory listing" Broken: both Py2 and Py3 dependencies are missing. There are other, working alternatives for this trivial use case.

[PRQ#43128] Deletion Request for pypy-chainmap
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pypy-chainmap [2]: Unneeded PyPy2 / PyPy3 package; last release 2019. [a] Broken because of missing PyPy2 makedepend. "Backport/clone of ChainMap for py26, py32, and pypy3". Current PyPy2 and PyPy3 support ChainMap. And there are no old PyPy version in Arch or AUR repos. Safe to delete this.

[PRQ#43125] Deletion Request for python-pythonz
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pythonz [2]: This "Python installation manager" was last released in 2016. [a] It only supports explicit versions that are added to a 'versions.py'. [b] As of that latest version, it only supports installing CPython 2.4 through 3.5.2, PyPy 1.8 through 5.3.1, PyPy3 2.3.1 & 2.4.0, and some other old interpreter variants. [b] Nothing depends on it. 0 votes / comments. Seems not needed and not useful to keep. [a]: https://github.com/saghul/pythonz/tags [b]: https://github.com/saghul/pythonz/blob/pythonz-2.0.1/pythonz/installer/vers… [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-pythonz/

[PRQ#43121] Deletion Request for python-codereef
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-codereef [2]: Defunct: A cross-platform Client with a Command Line Interface and a Python API for the open codereef.ai/portal. Website not found, domain parked since 2021. All evidence I was able to turn up point out that this was a 4-month research project from Dec 2019 until March 2020. With the website gone, there's no point in keeping the Python interface for it. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-codereef/
