[PRQ#53905] Merge Request for windowmaker-crm-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge windowmaker-crm-git [2] into windowmaker-git [3]: 'windowmaker-crm-git' has always been a duplicate of windowmaker-git. Upstream's release name is 'WindowMaker' (WindowMaker-${pkgver}.tar.gz). [a] There is a stable AUR/windowmaker pkg as well. [b] 'crm' stands for the initials of the owner of the git fork, Carlos R. Mafra, who copied the contents of the previous CVS repo, discontinued in 2006, and took over development responsibilities from original authors Alfredo K. Kojima and Dan Pascu et al. Also, none of the repo names are relevant for choosing a pkgname, they contain only the shorthand project name (wmaker): https://github.com/window-maker/wmaker https://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git The latter's name suffix has become irrelevant once the old project got shut down and Carlos R. Mafra's fork has been accepted to be the new official windowmaker project. AUR/windowmaker-git was created two years earlier than the 'crm' duplicate. [a]: https://www.windowmaker.org/ [b]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/windowmaker [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/windowmaker-crm-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/windowmaker-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

[PRQ#52694] Deletion Request for python-restructuredtext-lint
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-restructuredtext-lint [2]: Refiling PRQ#46263 (14 Aug 2023) that I have deferred (closed) earlier. Abandoned Python2/Python3 pkg. Has no reverse dependencies. There's a much earlier created, but still maintained duplicate: AUR/python-restructuredtext_lint. [a] That one does have other builds depending on it. I chose to file a deletion request as there are no votes, and the only comment here is from me, and it only pertains to this PKGBUILD. So it would be irrelevant to the other package. [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-restructuredtext_lint [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-restructuredtext-lint/

[PRQ#52765] Deletion Request for trakt-scrobbler
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for trakt-scrobbler [2]: Broken due to upstream's slow update schedule and reliance on deprecated Python module versions that are not available on Arch Linux and would need an old python-setuptools to build. AUR users have been notified to follow upstream's simple setup guide that uses pipx. I've tested that and it works fine, builds quickly and the application is usable that way.

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for global-appmenu-applet-whose- menu-mnemonic-has-been-disabled-git [2]: Broken, unmaintained, unneeded package. Also, a package name has to be reasonably short, and not consist of a whole extended sentence.
