[PRQ#44900] Deletion Request for lib32-openjpeg
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-openjpeg [2]: Orphan lib32 package for openjpeg1, from 2016. Has no dependents. This is not (lib32-)openjpeg2, for which there are separate packages. Also, the JPEG 2000 format, despite its fancy name, is so marginal, it never caught on. Web browsers don't support it. Games and regular desktop productivity applications never used this format, nor did interactive encyclopedias or other multimedia content software. So I see no harm in deleting this orphaned legacy package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-openjpeg/

[PRQ#44902] Deletion Request for eccodes-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for eccodes-git [2]: Orphan VCS package from 2021. Now it has wrong depends for upstream. It also does not declare the necessary provides and conflicts. I recommend deletion, as I pointed out the problems a year ago and also flagged the package, but no one reacted. AUR has a proper eccodes package for the latest stable release.
