Re: [PRQ#57765] Deletion Request for owncloud-app-music-git
by Muflone 30 Mar '24

Hi Michał I've removed the owncloud package from AUR as it was several versions out of date and not buildable at the current stage. The actual maintainer made a request for the deletion. If you're still interested in maintaining owncloud and your others owncloud packages, you can simply clone it from AUR, upgrade and restore it. I'm temporarily denying the deletion request in the case you're still interested in maintaining it along with owncloud, otherwise it will be deleted for the missing owncloud dependency. Best regards -- Muflone

[PRQ#58553] Deletion Request for stylelint-config-recess-order
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Mar '24

30 Mar '24

worstuser [1] filed a deletion request for stylelint-config-recess- order [2]: Dear AUR Administrator, I am writing to request the removal of a software package from the Arch User Repository (AUR). I believe this action is necessary and appropriate for the reasons outlined below. Firstly, the software in question has been deprecated. The original developers have ceased maintaining the software, and there have been no updates or patches for over two years. This lack of maintenance has resulted in the software becoming incompatible with recent versions of its dependencies, causing it to fail during runtime. Secondly, the software has been superseded by a newer, more efficient, and more secure alternative. The new software provides all the functionality of the old one, but with additional features and improved performance. It is also actively maintained and regularly updated to ensure compatibility with the latest system updates and security patches. Thirdly, the presence of the deprecated software in the AUR could potentially confuse or mislead users. Users looking for the software might inadvertently install the deprecated version instead of the newer one, leading to unnecessary troubleshooting and potential security risks. Lastly, removing the software from the AUR would help to keep the repository clean and manageable. It would reduce clutter and make it easier for users to find the software they need. It would also set a good precedent for the removal of other deprecated software in the future. In light of these reasons, I kindly request that you consider removing the software from the AUR. I understand that this may require some effort and I appreciate your understanding and assistance in this matter. Thank you for your time and consideration.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for kcm-polkit-kde-git [2]: Upstream is abandonware, only receives automated CI commit bumps. Fails to build with Qt6/KF6, and useless to make this with Qt5/KF5 dependencies. Because in that case, KDE's System Settings cannot load and show this configuration module.
