[PRQ#49576] Deletion Request for python-docker-py-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-docker-py-git [2]: Unmaintained, broken VCS package from 2016. With a name that does not align with repo's stable package (python- docker). The latter name is conformant with Arch Python package guidelines. I recommend deletion, chiefly due to the name mismatch, and because there's no evidence since 2016 that anyone needs this package. The repo build should be adequate to keep. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-docker-py-git/

[PRQ#53168] Deletion Request for thunar-gtk2-static-libs
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for thunar-gtk2-static-libs [2]: Broken since submission (fails to build). Gtk2 support in Xfce project is EOL since 2019. Not useful to keep. Nothing requires the Gtk2 variant of Thunar, and this is not compatible with downstream dependent plugins. Many Gtk2 based Xfce4 packages fail to build on current Arch Linux, some have already been deleted from AUR, others are pending removal for the same reason. Arch repo carries the current latest stable version of Thunar (which uses Gtk3). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/thunar-gtk2-static-libs/

[PRQ#49691] Deletion Request for qtox-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qtox-git [2]: qTox development has discontinued after mid-2022, and the GitHub repo got archived in Feb 2023. [a] Not useful to keep this abandoned AUR package from 2018. Arch repo still has the last qtox stable release. [a]: https://github.com/qTox/qTox [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/qtox-git/

[PRQ#49542] Deletion Request for opendds
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for opendds [2]: Unneeded, unused double library package from 2020. Bundles in an old version of the library called ace, so it states it provides and conflicts with that. But there's a newer version of ace as a separate package on AUR, and only that one has actual consumers. This one is not needed by any other pkg. Safe to delete.
