MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for zfs-linux-vfio [2]: Unmaintained, OOD zfs module from 2019 for the linux-vfio kernel variant. Not useful to keep.

[PRQ#46141] Deletion Request for zfs-linux-lts-rc
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for zfs-linux-lts-rc [2]: Unmaintained, long-OOD zfs release candidate module from 2021 for the Arch linux-lts kernel. Not useful to keep with this lack of interest: 0 votes or comments. The AUR/zfs-dkms-rc can be installed for the LTS kernel; that is a much better option for users, because there is zero maintenance lag when using that.

[PRQ#46129] Deletion Request for libdv-gtk2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libdv-gtk2 [2]: Orphan variant of repo's libdv, last updated in 2021. Does not have the needed provides and conflicts, even though it cannot co-exist with the repo package. The gtk2 dependency is only for its optional DV video player executable. Not needed, as GStreamer-based applications can decode and play DV video. So the library available in repo should be sufficient for everyone.
