[PRQ#49480] Deletion Request for metacity2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for metacity2 [2]: Unused, unneeded old gtk2 version of metacity from 11 years ago (2012), whose latest version is carried by extra repo. Metacity is already part of the GNOME project 'Flashback', providing classic Gtk2-like application look even when using newer toolkits like gtk3. Safe to delete this superfluous PKGBUILD.

[PRQ#49130] Deletion Request for i2p-dev
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for i2p-dev [2]: This package, last updated in 2021, has some issues (badly defined source). But instead of calling for a fix, I recommend deletion, on the basis that upstream does not create development snapshot/alpha/beta/nightly etc. releases, only stable ones. AUR has both an up-to-date i2p and i2p-bin package, whereas this one is several releases behind. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/i2p-dev/

[PRQ#57889] Deletion Request for ksysguard-gpu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ksysguard-gpu [2]: Upstream is only minimally maintained and only for KDE Plasma 5. Even on that desktop, KSysGuard has been EOL for more than 1 year now. This package is useless to keep, as it doesn't work on Arch Linux. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ksysguard-gpu/

[PRQ#57826] Deletion Request for xenonauts-hib
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Mar '24

24 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xenonauts-hib [2]: Cannot be installed because the used makedepend 'hib-dlagent' is EOL since 2016 and reported broken since 2018. And its broken engine dependency, python-humblebundle has been deleted from AUR. Nowadays it's easiest if one installs games with a game manager application. There are good alternatives alternatives. I use Lutris, which is available in Arch repo. It works well with all major distribution platforms, including Humble Bundle.
