[PRQ#43357] Deletion Request for gnudatalanguage-gdlkernel
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gnudatalanguage-gdlkernel [2]: Unneeded, older duplicate of AUR/gnudatalanguage. With a patch (cmake-patch.patch) that defines some symlink creationd during build on *Windows 32-bit* (WIN32). This is bogus, as this package is definitely a Linux build. Better to delete.

[PRQ#43353] Deletion Request for dav1d-git-optimized
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for dav1d-git-optimized [2]: Unmaintained since 2021-01, patching fails since then as per last user comment. Name is wrong for a VCS package. 1 vote, and only 4 comments from 2021. Unclear how it is more "optimized" than regular build. But anyway this should be delete because of the wrong name.

[PRQ#43347] Deletion Request for liquidfun
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Aug '23

18 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for liquidfun [2]: Orphan package from 2015. Cannot be built: missing a dependency. It is a fork and extension of box2d v2.3.0 from 2013. Project development seems to have halted since 2018. [a] Last release was in 2014. [b] This package wrongly declares it provides box2d. This was intended to be a divergent extension and fork, not one that promises compatibility with box2d. The box2d project, on the other hand, is developed actively. Last stable is from 2020 and is available in repo. Commits are pushed continually, last one is from Feb 2023. Better to delete this broken package without a maintainer and with misleading provides. Nothing on AUR depends on this, only on box2d.
