[PRQ#45301] Deletion Request for startup-notification-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for startup-notification-git [2]: This fork of FreeDesktop.org's startup-notification actually only contains one minor fix, and the 8 other commits that are just some housekeeping in the build support files. But development has stopped in 2017. [a] Upstream's last commit is from 2014. [b] Therefore I don't think it makes sense to keep a VCS package for this. Arch repo carries the last stable version.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 15 Oct '23

15 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ros2-galactic [2]: This package is not needed anymore.
