[PRQ#64647] Deletion Request for lib32-zbar
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '24

27 Oct '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-zbar [2]: Unmaintained but no longer used library. lib32-gstreamer{,-git} plugins dropped this as a dependency last year. Only Arch/extra/zbar carries /usr/bin executables; those can be invoked even by legacy bin32 applications, if needed (not that I am aware of any).

[PRQ#64646] Deletion Request for lib32-mjpegtools
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '24

27 Oct '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-mjpegtools [2]: Unmaintained library, no longer needed by anything (lib32-gstreamer dropped using this last year). Arch/multilib/lib32-libjpeg-turbo has dropped its legacy 'lib32-libjpeg' provides, breaking existing installations of 'lib32-mjpegtools, or forcing users of the latter to uninstall this. No one complained so far. Now this package depends virtually on AUR/lib32-mozjpeg-git, whose upstream Mozilla only sporadically maintains it and is unreliable for a production system (its build tends to get broken, with year-long gaps until fixes arrive).
