01 Jul '23

rosenberg [1] filed a deletion request for pineapple-ea-bin [2]: It looks like a yuzu distribution? moreover the website now advises Ryujinx instead [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/rosenberg/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pineapple-ea-bin/

[PRQ#41518] Deletion Request for inxi-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

eclairevoyant [1] filed a deletion request for inxi-git [2]: inxi-perl-git is the development version (as per upstream README, "Developers, get your version from the inxi-perl branch, pinxi, otherwise you may not be current to actual development versions. inxi- perl pinxi is always equal to or ahead of master branch inxi.") The release version is already in [community], and this package is essentially a duplicate of the release version [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/eclairevoyant/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/inxi-git/

[PRQ#41485] Orphan Request for frappe-bench
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

Spixmaster [1] filed an orphan request for frappe-bench [2]: The package is actually flagged outdated for months. I reset the start day of the flag by accident. That is why the flag looks recent. Despite that, I commented about a missing dependency and there is not reaction. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Spixmaster/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/frappe-bench/

[PRQ#41644] Deletion Request for sky
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sky [2]: Closed-source proprietary binary, "Lync and Skype for Business client on Linux". The company seems defunct, its website is "address not found". There does not seem to be a way to download this binary tarball anymore. But this package should not be needed. There are working alternatives for installing the official Microsoft instant messenger clients like Skype et al.

[PRQ#41688] Deletion Request for mirrorbrain
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mirrorbrain [2]: Seems like a dead project since 2014. [a] Package is defunct because it is missing a dependency. I suggest to delete it. It is a server component used for content delivery and mirroring. Even if it worked, it would be seriously insecure, and also most likely lack modern standards support.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

Mr.Smith1974 [1] filed an orphan request for jhelioviewer4-bin [2]: The current maintainer hasn't updated the package in a very long time, which is why the package is in a "bad" state and therefore this package needs a new maintainer, which could be me.
