[PRQ#47537] Deletion Request for firebirdsql-server
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Feb '24

04 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for firebirdsql-server [2]: Functionally equivalent duplicate of the earlier-existing AUR/firebird. [a] (This PKGBUILD is an almost 100% line-to-line copy of that one's.) Submitted on 2023-04-07 and never updated. Now an orphan package. Upstream's repo and release tarball name is 'firebird', not 'firebirdsql', so the other package aligns better with that, and with Arch PKGBUILD guidelines calling for sticking to upstream's release tarball name if possible. No AUR merge necessary, as there are no comments or votes here. [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firebird [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/firebirdsql-server/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Feb '24

04 Feb '24

rafaelff [1] filed a deletion request for teeman-git [2]: Package maintainer here. Upstream's last git commit was in 2013, so clearly the development stopped in time. I don't think we need this in AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/rafaelff/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/teeman-git/

[PRQ#53504] Deletion Request for xdg-utils-symlink-fix
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Feb '24

04 Feb '24

hnicke [1] filed a deletion request for xdg-utils-symlink-fix [2]: This package served as a workaround until a symlink-related patch was finally accepted upstream. With xdg-utils 1.2.0, the patch made it into xdg-utils - therefore the package is not required anymore.
