[PRQ#53678] Deletion Request for php83
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 03 Apr '24

03 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for php83 [2]: Less frequently updated than Arch repo's 'php', which is now also on the stable v8.3.x version. (As of now, the repo package is a newer point release.) Therefore it is not useful to keep this on AUR. Also AUR submission guidelines forbid this kind of duplication.

[PRQ#52167] Deletion Request for heart-of-darkness
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Apr '24

02 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for heart-of-darkness [2]: I loved this game back in the day, but this package uses an illegal, pirated full version, hosted on a fan copy of the original heartofdarkness.ca website, shut down earlier by its official owners. Please delete. AUR submission rules forbid the distribution of PKGBUILDs that rely on illegal content. The 'Heart of Darkness' game from 1998 seems not to be marketed anymore. But unfortunately that does not make it exempt from copyright. It is unclear to me which company / companies own the intellectual property and distribution rights to this title (possibilities include Atari SA or Bandai Namco Entertainment; North American distributor was InterPlay).

[PRQ#51743] Deletion Request for tsscreenlock
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Apr '24

02 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for tsscreenlock [2]: Unused VCS package in disguise. Only consumer is the dead, broken theshell; see deletion request PRQ#50413 for the latter. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tsscreenlock/

[PRQ#51676] Deletion Request for python-pyglet1.5
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Apr '24

01 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pyglet1.5 [2]: I've just realized that this package says it provides and conflicts with python-pyglet, without declaring the version it provides. Also, absolutely nothing in AUR depends on this old major version. It is not useful to keep: not a drop-in replacement to AUR/python- pyglet, so it just misleads people if we keep it, without any benefit whatsoever.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Apr '24

xiota [1] filed a deletion request for pavucontrol-qt-sandsmark-git [2]: This package should be deleted because it was created for use by a single individual who is most likely not using it any more. The maintainer has had no AUR activity since Apr 2022. Many of the maintainer's packages in various states of disrepair, many simply unbuildable with broken depends.
