[PRQ#45625] Deletion Request for python2-dis3
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Aug '23

05 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-dis3 [2]: Unused Python2 package from 2020; cannot be built because of undeclared makedepend. I've mentioned this a year ago but got no response. Only the unused pyinstaller2 depends on it, which has no consumers and no user comments (submitted that for deletion under PRQ#45624). Safe to drop this package as well.

[PRQ#45629] Deletion Request for python2-ruamel-yaml
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Aug '23

05 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-ruamel-yaml [2]: This Python2 library is not used by anything on AUR. Also the PKGBUILD executes pip2 install, which is not allowed by guidelines and is risky, as makepkg uses root privileges when creating the package.

[PRQ#45645] Deletion Request for python2-wokkel
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Aug '23

05 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-wokkel [2]: Wokkel was an experimental Jabber/XMPP chat protocol addon to Python- Twisted and the project's aim was to upstream the code to the main Twisted code. Twisted already supports Jabber/XMPP without Wokkel. Wokkel has been discontinued since 2018 [a], its website is gone [b], along with its documentation. [c] The Twisted-Jabber mailing list where supposedly the Wokkel development is discussed is dead since 2017. [d] So I recommend deleting this defunct package which has no dependents and is not useful anymore. [a]: https://github.com/ralphm/wokkel/ [b]: http://wokkel.ik.nu/ [c]: https://wokkel.ik.nu/documentation/ [d]: https://mailman.ik.nu/pipermail/twisted-jabber/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-wokkel/

[PRQ#45745] Deletion Request for python2-colorama-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Aug '23

05 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-colorama-git [2]: Broken Python2 VCS package: upstream no longer supports running setup.py. It also requires hatchling, which is not available for Python2 on AUR, as of now. But instead of fixing this, I recommend deletion: AUR still has a stable package for python2-colorama that works.
