[PRQ#43671] Deletion Request for mutter-338
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Aug '23

20 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mutter-338 [2]: Unneeded leftover package; last updated in Dec 2021. No one uses it. Evidence: its transitive (via gnome-settings-daemon-338) but mandatory dependency, libgweather (meaning libgweather-3.so) has been dropped from repo since Oct 2022 [a], without it being uploaded to AUR. There are no comments whatsoever on this package, nor on any other '-338' packages. So it's better to delete it, and safe to do so.

[PRQ#43667] Deletion Request for libgweather2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Aug '23

20 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libgweather2 [2]: This Gtk2-based GNOME libgweather (libgweather-2) has been discontinued since 2011. Arch repo updated to the Gtk3-based libgweather-3 in 2011, still under the original "libgweather" name. This package should never have provided "libgweather" since 2011, because from then on it always meant the Gtk3-based libgweather-3. Consequently, all packages on AUR that seem to be able to depend on this package require libgweather-3 instead. Nothing actually depends on this one. So it is better to delete it.
