[PRQ#46041] Deletion Request for pacstats-hg
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 17 Nov '23

17 Nov '23

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for pacstats-hg [2]: Google deprecated `code.google.com` long ago IIRC. The mercurial repo cannot be cloned (though the sources are there), so this package is useless, not to mention the last commit was in 2010. The stable version `pacstats` is available, but is also broken (from at least 2018). However, it wasn't flagged, so I did so to give the maintainer a chance. The sources are archived here by the way: https://code.google.com/archive/p/pacstats/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/a821/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pacstats-hg/

[PRQ#46040] Deletion Request for sparkleshare-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 17 Nov '23

17 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sparkleshare-git [2]: Orphan, broken C# based VCS package from 2018. Doesn't build, as per last comment from 2020. Also some of its C# based bindings packages are also defunct and abandoned. Seems there is no interest by anyone to adopt this. So I recommend deletion.

[PRQ#46035] Deletion Request for perl-extutils-cbuilder
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Nov '23

16 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for perl-extutils-cbuilder [2]: No need to keep this package. It is already vendored-in and provided by repo's perl package. Last upstream update was in 2021. It is not likely that the separate Perl pod would receive much updates outside of the upstream Perl releases.

[PRQ#46034] Deletion Request for lib32-vo-aacenc
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Nov '23

16 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-vo-aacenc [2]: Unused 32-bit library from 2018 of this newer implementation of AAC encoder. Nothing depends on it, and it is unlikely that any extra-AUR bin32-only software would need it, as it it too new for those.

[PRQ#46028] Deletion Request for sip-65
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Nov '23

16 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sip-65 [2]: Seems not needed anymore. Was submitted in 2022-05, at a time when repo's sip 6.6.x was having a lot of regressions, with which the Arch devs were struggling, trying everything they can to solve those. But it seem the current sip 6.7+ line in repo is very stable and reliable. There is nothing in AUR that explicitly needs SIP 6.5, and SIP 6.7+ should be adequate now.
