[PRQ#47521] Deletion Request for nvidia-pf
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Sep '23

18 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for nvidia-pf [2]: It is not useful to keep this badly and sporadically maintained package. I've explained the problems in a comment in 2023-06, as well as in emails to the maintainer. He was unwilling to address those, and he still does not even regularly update the version. Also he updates his linux-pf package a bit more frequently than this - which in many cases breaks this package. My comment from 2023-06-22, the day of the last update: " This new version is wrong. It just repackages the current, fixed version of repo nvidia-dkms for the linux-pf kernel that is currently installed. The package will prevent pacman sysupgrade the instant repo pushes a new version update to nvidia-utils (because of this [*a] versioned depends). / As of now, it also has a bogus "linux-pf>" entry. / The installed package will also break when there is a new linux-pf update without a new nvidia-pf update. It can also potentially break if there is a simultaneous new linux-pf update and nvidia-pf bump, if the user just builds linux-pf without immediately installing it, then builds nvidia-pf, then wants to install both. (The reason behind the latter two issues is this line of PKGBUILD [*b], which was designed by repo maintainers for a specific setup of build steps - building, then installing the intended kernel version before creating the nvidia module package. It does not make sense to just copy-paste repo's solution to this AUR pkg.) It's better to just rely on nvidia-dkms, which will do the correct thing every time there's a new linux-pf update and/or an nvidia-dkms update, and won't ever prevent sysupgrade. My recommendation still stands: delete this package, no one has used it for the last 4 years, and no one needs to.
