Output from building in chroot: ==> Installing missing dependencies... error: target not found: find error: target not found: termux-api ==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies. ==> Missing dependencies: -> find -> termux-api Computers don't intentionally mislead. Please don't do that yourself either. Or if it was not intentional, then it is a good argument in favor of ceasing your current practice of obfuscating your PKGBUILDs. Maybe you would understand your own code better.

Your packaging system is irrelevant about the AUR. Every package **MUST** respect the Arch Linux packaging standards. If your setup is broken or not it's pretty irrelevant. The AUR is not your place where to cast your daily experiments, the AUR is a place where other people get build instructions for packages for Arch Linux and people expect to find working packages, otherwise such package will be deleted. I wrote the following message on the mediascan package and I'll copy also here to make sure you don't miss by any chance: Would you please stop publishing broken on arrival packages? Would you please open the package page https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mediascan and read the RED dependencies? Those are broken and need to be fixed. Would you please test your packages BEFORE submitting them on the AUR without awaiting other people to point to all the tens of errors they contain? Please don't make me repeat for the third time to test your packages BEFORE submitting to the AUR. pkgctl build namcap *.zst namcap PKGBUILD Also: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Creating_packages https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_package_guidelines Please observe those hints and **don't publish anything else** before having checked those requirements are met. Consider this one as my last attempt to explain you what you're doing wrong and it's causing a lot of work and waste of time with zero benefits as you ignored most of the issues about your packages.

[PRQ#50307] Deletion Request for python-gto
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-gto [2]: This new package is a CLI application; should be named 'gto' @naetherm, thank you for sharing your PKGBUILD. Please kindly change the pkgname to 'gto' and resubmit as AUR/gto, to align with Arch Python package guidelines.

[PRQ#49043] Deletion Request for ffmpeg-nonvidia
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ffmpeg-nonvidia [2]: By the name of this package, it is essentially a duplicate of extra/ffmpeg: 'nvidia-utils' is only an optional dependency of the latter, so it provides the same functionality if nvidia-utils is not installed. Any other minor discrepancies just mean that this package is named wrongly for how it is different from repo's ffmpeg. There's already an AUR/ffmpeg-amd-full; this package is actually minimally different from that. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ffmpeg-nonvidia/

[PRQ#52830] Deletion Request for gtk2-youtube-viewer
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gtk2-youtube-viewer [2]: Does not work - cannot be built. And has a wrong name. This is not a variant of gtk2, nor it is a plugin to gtk2. It was meant to be a 'youtube-viewer' package built with Gtk2 GUI. 0 votes/comments. Seems no one is using this. There are other packages on AUR for youtube-viewer.
