[PRQ#49436] Deletion Request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-base
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-base [2]: Abandoned, not actually used gstreamer0.10 lib32 library pkg from 2020. It is unbuildable, just like its also several-years-unmaintained native-build counterpart (gstreamer0.10-base). AUR/crossover currently defines this as an optdepend, but its current version can no longer use this. I plan to submit a comment on the latter's AUR page with a suggested PKGBUILD diff, because the current package has many other obsolete (opt)depends as of now, due to upstream changes. Safe to delete this defunct library. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-gstreamer0.10-base/

[PRQ#49417] Deletion Request for udev-notify
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for udev-notify [2]: VCS package in disguise from 2022. @FabioLolix has pointed this out last year and suggested changes to rectify it, but maintainer just ignored the feedback. Upstream not developed since 2016. [a] Safe to delete; seems no one is using this.

[PRQ#49272] Deletion Request for python-orange-canvas-core-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-orange-canvas-core- git [2]: Abandoned, broken VCS package from 2021. With a pkgver() that does not produce commit/revision specific, monotonically increasing version string, and which also can potentially use a different tag depending on user's global git config (because it just lists all cloned tags and picks the newest, but doesn't use git describe, so it might pick a tag that is only on a different branch but not on master branch). Not useful to keep. Better to delete. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-orange-canvas-core-git/
