[PRQ#57406] Deletion Request for stapxs-qq-lite-webpage-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for stapxs-qq-lite-webpage-git [2]: Broken. Upstream is abandoned since last year. The package has been unbuildable for at least 6 months. Tencent has released an official QQ client; it is available from AUR too. [a] It seems there is much less incentive to maintain unofficial QQ applications anymore; another third-party client has been discontinued as well. [b] [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linuxqq [b]: See PRQ#57125 - deletion request for gtk-qq-git: https://lists.archlinux.org/hyperkitty/list/aur- requests(a)lists.archlinux.org/thread/NJ32TD3IIW7JLOGHUB2VKDQBW3KUFY3B [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/stapxs-qq-lite-webpage-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mutter-auto-rotation [2]: This patched variant of mutter is no longer maintained, and cannot be installed together with repo's gnome-shell. Not useful to keep. There are other solutions for the same use case, e.g. gnome-shell-extension-screen-autorotate, available on AUR. [a] [a]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-shell-extension-screen- autorotate [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/mutter-auto-rotation/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pytest-astropy-meta [2]: Unneeded blank metapackage; AUR has a maintained, officially released metapackage for same purpose: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pytest-astropy Though PyPI/pytest-astropy defines itself as a metapackage [a], nevertheless its content is not nil, because it has dependency metadata definitions. [a]: https://pypi.org/project/pytest-astropy [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-pytest-astropy-meta/

[PRQ#58920] Deletion Request for lightlyshaders
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lightlyshaders [2]: Build is broken. Also this version (v2.x) would not work on current KDE Plasma 6. For upstream's v3.0 port for Plasma 6, the proper package name would be 'kwin6-effects-lightlyshaders', in accordance with the naming patterns used in ArchWiki's KDE package guidelines.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xone-dkms-dlundqvist-git [2]: This fork has been discontinued for close to 6 months [a], and fails to install on current Linux kernels (6.x).
