[PRQ#57793] Merge Request for jre-jetbrains
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge jre-jetbrains [2] into jdk17-jetbrains-bin [3]: Consolidating packages, as both are the same. The pkgname has to have the '-bin' suffix, as both are based on prebuilt binaries of an open-source codebase. 'jdk' is also a more proper name than 'jre', as both contain the full Java Development Kit as well as the runtime environment.

[PRQ#57160] Merge Request for ffmpeg21
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge ffmpeg21 [2] into ffmpeg2.1 [3]: Package got renamed by maintainer, and changed the two reverse dependencies to require the new one instead of the old.

[PRQ#57794] Merge Request for zulu-embedded-jdk
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge zulu-embedded-jdk [2] into zulu-21-bin [3]: Consolidating packages. AUR/zulu-embedded-jdk has been unmaintained since 2023-03, and its name is misleading. It is mixing different versions of the Zulu JDK for different architectures. And OpenJDK is free open-source software, therefore third-party binary builds should be named with a '-bin' suffix on AUR.

[PRQ#58209] Merge Request for elm-platform
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge elm-platform [2] into elm- platform-bin [3]: The stable source-build package cannot be compiled and is abandoned since 2018. Better to keep only the working '-bin' package that has a maintainer.

[PRQ#58183] Merge Request for percol
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge percol [2] into percol-git [3]: Better to keep only the '-git' package, as it has untagged but useful fixes (+39 commits). Last stable release was in 2015. Last master branch commit is from 2019. (Also there are newer pull requests in the pipeline, and it seems owner attends to those occasionally.)

[PRQ#58213] Deletion Request for wkhtmltox-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for wkhtmltox-bin [2]: Duplicate of AUR/wkhtmltopdf-static. [a] Please communicate with the maintainer of that package instead of double-submitting a package with a different name. [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wkhtmltopdf-static [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wkhtmltox-bin/

[PRQ#50516] Merge Request for boost-note-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

yochananmarqos [1] filed a request to merge boost-note-bin [2] into boostnote-bin [3]: I initially submitted a deletion request (PRQ#50431), but then the maintainer of boost-note-bin added me as a Co-Maintainer instead of adopting boostnote-bin. Either way, it's a duplicate package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/yochananmarqos/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/boost-note-bin/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/boostnote-bin/

[PRQ#51346] Merge Request for wingpanel-indicator-privacy-stable-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge wingpanel-indicator-privacy- stable-git [2] into wingpanel-indicator-privacy-git [3]: Eliminating duplication. Both packages are the same, and they build from the master branch. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wingpanel-indicator-privacy-stable-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wingpanel-indicator-privacy-git/

[PRQ#51403] Merge Request for perl-term-twiddle-qle
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge perl-term-twiddle-qle [2] into perl-term-twiddle [3]: The former is the exact duplicate of the latter as of now. Also, perl-term-twiddle-qle has a wrong, non-working upstream URL. The '-qle' package is an exclusive dependency of AUR/qle, which is a defunct package from 2017, with its source and upstream gone (404), so I've submitted that for deletion (PRQ#51402). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/perl-term-twiddle-qle/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/perl-term-twiddle/
