[PRQ#66766] Merge Request for lmstudio-appimage
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Dec '24

18 Dec '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge lmstudio-appimage [2] into lmstudio [3]: Duplicates. Upstream is closed source. AUR/lmstuduio is maintained more actively, and is also based on upstream's AppImage release.

[PRQ#66680] Deletion Request for usbboot
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Dec '24

18 Dec '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for usbboot [2]: Broken, unused VCS package from 2021. Also, despite the bogus arch=('any'), this PKGBUILD actually compiles C source into machine code, and the runtime is intended to be executed only on ARM / Aarch64 devices like the Raspberry Pi. Therefore this is not compatible with Arch Linux (x86_64). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/usbboot/

[PRQ#66675] Deletion Request for tome2-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 17 Dec '24

17 Dec '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for tome2-git [2]: Dead package from 2015; source is unavailable. Also upstream now uses its own "T-Engine 4" (version 4), and therefore the corresponding, up-to-date game runtime packages of "Tales of Maj'Eyal" (a.k.a. "TOME") all have the AUR pkgname stem 'tome4'. [a] [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?K=tome4 [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tome2-git/

[PRQ#66665] Orphan Request for gnome-nibbles-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 16 Dec '24

16 Dec '24

MarsSeed [1] filed an orphan request for gnome-nibbles-git [2]: Broken: upstream needs different dependencies (e.g. gtk4, libadwaita). Current owner Pellegrino Prevete (@tallero/@truocolo) has been permanently banned from AUR since Feb 2024, and his accounts were switched to inactive status in May 2024.
