[PRQ#54086] Deletion Request for wxwidgets-light
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Apr '24

14 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for wxwidgets-light [2]: Unmaintained since 2023-07-31, and currently several point releases older than repo's wxwidgets (3.2.2.1 vs 3.2.4). But this is also apparently unused, as no one flagged it. And it's not beneficial to keep. This package is not compatible with repo's wxwidgets-gtk3. and therefore most downstream dependent builds cannot use it, e.g. due to its divergent naming of the relevant wx- config executable. But no one complained - again, an evidence of disuse. This also cannot be coinstalled e.g. with repo's veracrypt (which I use). It also builds and puts the headless wxbase into wxwidgets-common- light - another divergence from repo's corresponding package, which does no such thing. Even if configured properly, this build would still break many reverse dependencies - those that need multimedia capabilities - as it omits gstreamer support. Therefore I don't see any benefit in keeping this. Maybe one person (submitter) would disagree, but no one else has shown any indication that they would needs this build. Enough to keep repo's wxwidgets (and AUR's wxwidgets-git). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wxwidgets-light/
