[PRQ#50287] Deletion Request for qt5ct-svn
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Mar '24

21 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qt5ct-svn [2]: Unused, broken VCS package from 2018. I recommend deletion, as this third-party Qt5-only utility's upstream is in minimal maintenance mode, with only a few minor translation and dependency/buildconfig bumps added occasionally. The project quickly creates a new point release after those adjustments. Therefore a working VCS package would only create a duplicate of repo's qt5ct almost all of the time.

[PRQ#50877] Deletion Request for rpgvxace-rtp
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Mar '24

21 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for rpgvxace-rtp [2]: Unneeded RPG Maker common multimedia assets and runtime .dll's package from 2011. Nothing depends on it on AUR. Source is hosted on an insecure third-party server with expired TLS certificate, therefore curl refuses to download it. Not needed to keep this package on AUR as is. Also, this was only intended to allow reducing the game distribution file size, by omitting these common resources and downloading them once from RPG Maker's official site. But nowadays bandwidth is not a problem. If a game still happens to need these resources, it will link to official upstream site, from where they can be acquired, and it is safer to get it from there and install them only inside the HOME dir, not into the system.
