[PRQ#50481] Deletion Request for telepathy-morse-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Mar '24

26 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for telepathy-morse-git [2]: All telepathy-kde* packages have been dropped from Arch repos and also from AUR, because they have been discontinued by upstream since April 2023 and most of the connection modules were already defunct anyway. This package no longer has any existing and working telepathy-qt5 based IM applications to be used with. Also its upstream is abandoned since 2020.

[PRQ#50352] Deletion Request for nerolinux3
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Mar '24

26 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for nerolinux3 [2]: Defunct proprietary optical media burning software last released in 2009, needing a registration key to work. 32-bit software, so pkgname should have had the 'bin32-' prefix. Release archives are no longer offered by upstream, and the currently declared source array pointing to a file hosted by getsoft.sibnet.ru leads to a 404 not found error. I propose deletion: not useful to keep. Nowadays there are many good, free open-source alternatives for this use case.

[PRQ#50312] Deletion Request for lxd516
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Mar '24

26 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lxd516 [2]: Unneeded older version of extra/lxd. Conflicts with the repo package, so it does not conform to AUR submission guidelines that rules against duplicating repo packages, even if different versions. If there is a compatibility issue or defect in repo's lxd package, file a bug report. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lxd516/

[PRQ#50660] Deletion Request for artwork-maia
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Mar '24

26 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for artwork-maia [2]: This is a defunct, unmaintained KDE Plasma 5.10 theme package from 5 years ago. I've tried it in 2019 and it had many missing icons and graphical inconsistencies. I doubt things would be any better now. Manjaro itself seems to have dropped the 'plasma5-themes-maia' and 'sddm-maia-theme' from their distro repo. (But again, the icon theme subpackage is also not useful anymore.) It does not help that this is a VCS PKGBUILD in disguise, as there's no upstream update since 2018.

[PRQ#50798] Deletion Request for vncscreen
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 26 Mar '24

26 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for vncscreen [2]: Broken, unmaintained mobile application. During the last 1.5+ year, upstream only developed the Android port, not the KDE Plasma GUI. [a] Not useful to keep on AUR. Users can choose alternative GUI VNC clients that work.
