by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Aug '23

05 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-shreddit-git [2]: Abandoned, defunct VCS package. Name should have been without the 'python-' prefix, as this is a CLI application. But it has been broken since 2019, as per last comment. Its source is a fork which has been discontinued since 2019 [a], and its original upstream is abandoned since 2017. [b] Also PKGBUILD uses pip for building and installing it, which is not allowed by Arch Python package guidelines.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pearson-reader-plus-bin [2]: The PKGBUILD creates an empty package, but the AUR repo itself contains a hidden, undeclared precompiled binary pacman pkg.tar.zst file. Hosting this on AUR is explicitly forbidden by the AUR submission guidelines: [a] # The AUR should not contain the binary tarball created by makepkg, nor should it contain the filelist.
