[PRQ#49523] Merge Request for lprng-cups
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge lprng-cups [2] into lprng [3]: Eliminating duplication, and also rationalizing packages. Currently, 'lprng-cups' doesn't include cups files, and 'lprng' does. It should be the other way around, or at least 'lprng' should be the one that doesn't conflict with cups. Please kindly adopt the currently orphan 'lprng', update it, and change its packaging to make it capable of coexisting with cups.

[PRQ#53527] Merge Request for wkhtmltopdf-static
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge wkhtmltopdf-static [2] into wkhtmltox-bin [3]: Renaming disguised '-bin' package. (Asked this politely in my comment made on 2022-02-15, but maintainer just ignored it.) Upstream's release tarball name is 'wkhtmltox', which conveys that the tool supports other output formats, not just PDF. Arch package guidelines also say that it is preferable to use upstream's release archive name as pkgname. And AUR submission guidelines mandate a '-bin' suffix for foreign binary based packages in case the code is open-source.

[PRQ#51991] Merge Request for python-pytest-astropy-meta
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge python-pytest-astropy-meta [2] into python-pytest-astropy [3]: I'm closing my earlier deletion request, PRQ#46223 (2023-08-13), and filing this merge request. AUR/python-pytest-astropy-meta is a blanked-out version from 2019 of AUR/python-pytest-astropy. Though PyPI/pytest-astropy defines itself as a metapackage [a], nevertheless its content is not nil, because it has dependency metadata definitions. AUR/python-pytest-astropy carries the latest upstream version. [a] [a]: https://pypi.org/project/pytest-astropy/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-pytest-astropy-meta/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-pytest-astropy/

[PRQ#53253] Merge Request for xtables-addons-rawnat
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge xtables-addons-rawnat [2] into xtables-addons [3]: I've closed my deletion request PRQ#47748 (2023-09-21), and instead I am filing this merge request. The 'rawnat' fork has been discontinued since 2016 and been superseded by the main 'xtables-addons' package.

[PRQ#53214] Deletion Request for ubuntu-kylin-theme
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ubuntu-kylin-theme [2]: This theme package is abandoned since 4 years ago, and if installed, it breaks the gtk icon cache. I do not need this theme, and I don't have enough knowledge (nor incentive to gain such) to fix it. I think it is better to delete. Seems there is zero interest in this package by other people on AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ubuntu-kylin-theme/

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge exteragram-desktop-git [2] into rabbitgram-desktop-git [3]: Upstream got renamed. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/exteragram-desktop-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/rabbitgram-desktop-git/

[PRQ#54102] Merge Request for widevine
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge widevine [2] into chromium- widevine [3]: Eliminating dupication. 'widewine' was submitted to AUR in 2015, 'chromium-widewine' in 2023. 'chromium' in the pkgname is an essential differentiator, as both packages are only for Chromium-based browsers, i.e. this widevine plugin is not compatible with e.g. Firefox.

[PRQ#50214] Deletion Request for imlib2-heic
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for imlib2-heic [2]: Unneeded addon to imlib2, as now extra/imlib2 builds with HEIC/HEIF support via libheif. This was only useful earlier, when imlib2 itself did not use libheif yet. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/imlib2-heic/

[PRQ#50228] Deletion Request for imlib2-heic-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for imlib2-heic-git [2]: Not useful to keep this VCS package on AUR any longer: repo 's current imlib2 natively supports the HEIF/HEIC formats via libheif. This separate plugin was developed for older versions of imlib2 that didn't have that format support built in yet.
