[PRQ#51991] Merge Request for python-pytest-astropy-meta
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge python-pytest-astropy-meta [2] into python-pytest-astropy [3]: I'm closing my earlier deletion request, PRQ#46223 (2023-08-13), and filing this merge request. AUR/python-pytest-astropy-meta is a blanked-out version from 2019 of AUR/python-pytest-astropy. Though PyPI/pytest-astropy defines itself as a metapackage [a], nevertheless its content is not nil, because it has dependency metadata definitions. AUR/python-pytest-astropy carries the latest upstream version.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge xtables-addons-rawnat [2] into xtables-addons [3]: I've closed my deletion request PRQ#47748 (2023-09-21), and instead I am filing this merge request. The 'rawnat' fork has been discontinued since 2016 and been superseded by the main 'xtables-addons' package.

[PRQ#53214] Deletion Request for ubuntu-kylin-theme
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ubuntu-kylin-theme [2]: This theme package is abandoned since 4 years ago, and if installed, it breaks the gtk icon cache. I do not need this theme, and I don't have enough knowledge (nor incentive to gain such) to fix it. I think it is better to delete. Seems there is zero interest in this package by other people on AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ubuntu-kylin-theme/

[PRQ#50214] Deletion Request for imlib2-heic
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for imlib2-heic [2]: Unneeded addon to imlib2, as now extra/imlib2 builds with HEIC/HEIF support via libheif. This was only useful earlier, when imlib2 itself did not use libheif yet. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/imlib2-heic/

[PRQ#50228] Deletion Request for imlib2-heic-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for imlib2-heic-git [2]: Not useful to keep this VCS package on AUR any longer: repo 's current imlib2 natively supports the HEIF/HEIC formats via libheif. This separate plugin was developed for older versions of imlib2 that didn't have that format support built in yet.

[PRQ#53363] Merge Request for prometheus-apcupsd-exporter-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge prometheus-apcupsd-exporter-bin [2] into prometheus-apcupsd-exporter [3]: The binary source of the -bin package is missing (404). The non-bin package in AUR repo is still maintained and is up-to-date. The bin package is from 2019 and was for a personal, unofficial build. Upstream does not seem to provide prebuilt binaries.
