[PRQ#44459] Deletion Request for gsettings-desktop-schemas-oldstable
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gsettings-desktop-schemas- oldstable [2]: Orphan package. Unmaintained and unused - proof: Its dependent, gnome-settings-daemon-oldstable is broken since Oct 2022, when libgweather (meaning libgweather3.so) was deleted from repo [a], without it being uploaded to AUR. But no one noticed at all. Also, the name designation doesn't make too much sense - what is "oldstable", and according to whom? It also fails to correspond to Debian oldstable, which is on an even earlier, single-digit main version of gnome desktop components. So it's better to delete this defunct, unused and misleadingly named package.

[PRQ#44449] Deletion Request for python-tendo
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-tendo [2]: Unmaintained orphan package, last updated 7 months ago. Not useful to keep, as it has only one orphan dependent: kast, which is broken and submitted for deletion (PRQ#44434). Kast is available from PyPI, so it's better to not fool users into thinking the AUR package works. It's easy to get it via pip install.

[PRQ#44447] Deletion Request for python-vispy-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-vispy-git [2]: Abandoned orphan from 2015. Broken: needs packaging changes. But it seems no one wants to step up to maintain it. (There has been a few comments mentioning the issues, but none of the commenters adopted it.) AUR has a working stable package, python-vispy. I think it's better to delete this defunct one.
