[PRQ#45520] Deletion Request for deepin.com.qq.rtx2015
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for deepin.com.qq.rtx2015 [2]: Orphan legacy package, and its release archive has been deleted from Deepin repo more than 14 months ago. Only I submitted this information to AUR, no one else wrote anything apart from former owner who made one comment in 2020.

[PRQ#45519] Deletion Request for com.taobao.wangwang.deepin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for com.taobao.wangwang.deepin [2]: Orphan package. Seems this version is discontinued by upstream (Alibaba). Has been having problems already last year, and as per the newest user comment from 2023-04, it is now totally defunct, doesn't work at all. Upstream website also just redirects to a landing page informing about the newer major version 10 of this client (current package is for v9.2). Therefore I recommend deletion.

[PRQ#45518] Deletion Request for com.freepiano.deepin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for com.freepiano.deepin [2]: Orphan package for the legacy FreePiano2 from 2015. There exists a new FreePiano3 (no AUR package yet). I recommend deleting this abandoned package; seems not used by anyone now. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/com.freepiano.deepin/

[PRQ#45517] Deletion Request for teams-for-linux-electron-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for teams-for-linux-electron-bin [2]: New package, duplicates the slightly earlier-submitted AUR package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teams-for-linux-bin The package name here is also misleading: the other package is also Electron-based, the only difference is that this package removes the bundled runtime, whereas teams-for-linux-bin doesn't (yet). But instead of creating duplicate packages, one should suggest enhancements to exiting ones, and I did that recently on the AUR page of the latter. Please delete this superfluous package.

[PRQ#45508] Deletion Request for python-offshoot-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-offshoot-git [2]: Development discontinued since 2018, [a] in its upstream repo as well, and the latter is even archived. [b] Package is broken since 2022-03 but owner did not attend to it. So now it seems safe to recommend deletion. [a]: https://github.com/greyltc/offshoot [b]: https://github.com/SerpentAI/offshoot [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-offshoot-git/

[PRQ#45506] Deletion Request for anytype
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

mundo03 [1] filed a deletion request for anytype [2]: On the description of this package it is said to use another package instead, I think it would be safer to delete this one. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/mundo03/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/anytype/

[PRQ#45503] Deletion Request for python-fastaq-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-fastaq-git [2]: Broken VCS package from 2015, with undeclared sources. But even if fixed, this should be submitted under a different name: pyfastaq-git Because pyfastaq is the name of the PyPI/Anaconda package, and this is a CLI application, so no 'python-' prefix required. But as there is no user feedback (0 comments/votes), it seems safe to recommend deleting this package.

[PRQ#45501] Deletion Request for metis4
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 29 Oct '23

29 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for metis4 [2]: This legacy version from 2016 was only used by the several-years broken salome modules from same year. Its source cannot be downloaded (host unreachable). But it's safe to delete: the broken salome modules are also pending deletion, and the current version of Salome needs newer versions of its dependencies.
