[PRQ#66769] Deletion Request for adscript
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Dec '24

07 Dec '24

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for adscript [2]: Orphan. No votes. The PKGBUILD uses sudo to install, but more importanly, it fails to build (which I pointed out two months ago in the comments). It doesn't look like someone is using this (the other comment ask to fix the sudo usage two years ago). Upstream seems also inactive (last commit two years ago). No reverse depends. Safe to delete.

[PRQ#66652] Deletion Request for python-svn
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Dec '24

07 Dec '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-svn [2]: Broken Python library pkg from 2017, but unused on Arch/AUR. Unbuildable on Arch Linux since April 4, 2024 (python 3.12), but no one complained. Votes: 1 Popularity: 0.000000 Comments: 1 (from 2015) Upstream seems mostly abandoned. Last release was made in 2020. [a] There was some post-release development in 2020, and then the master branch received just 3 "no-op", obsolescence removal commits in 2023. [b] The code has use-case breaking issues, but upstream does not seem active in addressing them. [c] As of now, only the working AUR/python-pysvn [d] has reverse dependencies. That project is still alive and receives continual developer attention. [a]: https://github.com/dsoprea/PySvn/tags [b]: https://github.com/dsoprea/PySvn/compare/1.0.1...master [c]: https://github.com/dsoprea/PySvn/issues [d]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pysvn [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-svn/
