[PRQ#57231] Deletion Request for artwork-breath
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '24

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for artwork-breath [2]: Broken package. But also abandoned by upstream. This is a Manjaro fork of KDE 5's Breeze theme, with customized color scheme. Not compatible with KDE Plasma 6. Users should use KDE Breeze and customize that one. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/artwork-breath/

[PRQ#54145] Deletion Request for archipelago-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '24

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for archipelago-git [2]: Broken, and no longer viable to keep. Upstream has been rewritten from scratch. It isn't a cross-platform Node.js app anymore, but a MacOS-only terminal emulator, written in Swift, needing compilation to machine code, with MacOS-specific libraries / API's.

[PRQ#52536] Deletion Request for mingw-w64-lilv
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '24

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mingw-w64-lilv [2]: No longer needed by mingw-w64-gstreamer et al. Not useful to keep anymore; safe to delete. (Its dependency chain has also been unmaintained for years - mingw-w64-sratom, mingw-w64-serd, mingw-w64-sord, and even mingw-w64-python).

[PRQ#49681] Deletion Request for kf5-kio-ftps
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '24

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for kf5-kio-ftps [2]: Defunct KDE4 KIO Slave addon from 2008, barely ported in 2015 to KDE5, with KdeLibs4Support still needed. And it already doesn't work. When trying to access an FTPS server dir, it quits, and says: "TLS Negotiation failed on the data channel." It is supposed to work in PASV mode, but it seems not to be the case. Even KIO5 itself complains that this module is broken, see log output: "kf.kio.core: error() called twice! Please fix the kio_ftps KIO worker." Also, even if it worked, it would be insecure. It doesn't support TLS certificate validation, it just blindly accepts the TLS connection without bothering with certificates, even if the server presents an unknown, untrusted certificate. And also as it depends on kdelibs4support, which is EOL and likely won't work on KDE Plasma 6, this won't even be able to run in a few months. I don't think it's useful to keep this any longer. People who need proper FTPS (FTP with TLS) support should use a reliable, working application offering this functionality.

[PRQ#57530] Merge Request for mikutter-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '24

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge mikutter-git [2] into mikutter [3]: The git package has been abandoned since 2016 and now the git clone fails (don't really know why). Better to keep only the maintained, working stable package.
