[PRQ#52737] Deletion Request for rxvt-unicode-patched
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Feb '24

24 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for rxvt-unicode-patched [2]: Abandoned package with vague name, but also no longer needed or usable. Reported as having broken character output. Users mention in the linked Arch Linux forum topic that extra repo's rxvt-unicode should be used instead, which works properly.

[PRQ#52179] Merge Request for seafile-client-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Feb '24

24 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge seafile-client-git [2] into seafile-client [3]: 'seafile-client-git' is broken and long abandoned. But it also would not really be useful even if fixed: upstream is updated only sporadically, with a few commits here and there; and then quickly publishes a new point release. The stable AUR/seafile-client is actively maintained, up-to-date, and works.

[PRQ#51990] Merge Request for gr-limesdr
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Feb '24

24 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge gr-limesdr [2] into gr-limesdr- git [3]: I'm closing my earlier deletion request, PRQ#46205 (2023-08-13), and I'm filing this merge request, to transfer votes, comments, and notification subscriptions. 'gr-limesdr' is long broken, abandoned, and upstream hasn't released any tags since Jan 2021. [a] Instead, they maintain a gnuradio 3.10 branch, and AUR/gr-limesdr-git uses that, to work with Arch repo's gnuradio v3.10.x.

[PRQ#51949] Merge Request for 3mux-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Feb '24

24 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge 3mux-git [2] into 3mux [3]: Upstream is not actively maintained since 2021, except for 2 merged patches for MacOS build. AUR/3mux-git is long abandoned and broken. But not worth keeping as per the above statement. AUR/3mux works, and is on the latest release version.

[PRQ#50118] Merge Request for python-gym-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Feb '24

24 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge python-gym-git [2] into python- gym [3]: Upstream maintenance discontinued since Oct 2022. [a] Developers added a deprecation notice to README, stating that this won't receive any further updates, and consumers should migrate to the API-compatible successor called Gymnasium. [b] The git package on AUR is currently broken, but it's not worth fixing it. The python-gym pkg builds the exact same code version, which is the last stable release. [a]: https://github.com/openai/gym/commits/master [b]: https://github.com/openai/gym [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-gym-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-gym/
