[PRQ#58989] Deletion Request for msquic-prerelease
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for msquic-prerelease [2]: Long OOD; the package has been abandoned for 2.5+ years. Has 1 vote, and only 1 comment, from 2021. Not useful to keep. AUR has both a maintained msquic & msquic-git build. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/msquic-prerelease/

[PRQ#59008] Deletion Request for soundscope-player-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for soundscope-player-git [2]: Dead-on-arrival package from 2 years ago, missing a dependency. Upstream is submitter; code is unmaintained for the last 2 years. [a] There's still a (similarly broken) stable AUR/soundscope-player whose source is the exact same code version as the one coming from the master branch. [a]: https://github.com/tallero/soundscope-player [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/soundscope-player-git/

[PRQ#58997] Deletion Request for gpic-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gpic-git [2]: Broken script of submitter Pellegrino Prevete, which uses a now nonexistent Google picasaweb web API URL endpoint to try (and fail) to download a Google Account profile picture. Not useful to keep on AUR. Also potentially insecure or even malicious, as this is a git build and creator can push whatever changes to their GitHub repo, and he's been known to have made suspicious things in the past. (Like in the case of AUR/ipfs-dlagent that installs a persistent P2P server-client daemon into the user's system without informing them about it.)

[PRQ#58992] Deletion Request for msquic-release-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for msquic-release-git [2]: Uses an outdated release branch. Also it is pointless to keep, as upstream always creates stable version bumps quickly whenever they push maintenance commits to the latest release branch. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/msquic-release-git/
