[PRQ#58985] Deletion Request for ocaml-lastfm
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Apr '24

09 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ocaml-lastfm [2]: This library longer works, because dependency ocamlnet has been abandonware for years and is only compatible with Ocaml 4. Therefore the latest update to this package is dead-on-arrival. The last consumer of this library was liquidsoap, itself kind of abandonware and depending on Ocaml4-only legacy libs. It got deleted from AUR recently (March 2024).

Uh, I'm just a fellow user on AUR, not a PM or staff member. ^.^ You'll have to wait until a PM approves the disowning. (Which might take a week or a few.) Cheers, Marcell / MarsSeed

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Apr '24

09 Apr '24

bertptrs [1] filed a request to merge jupyterlab-plotly [2] into python-plotly [3]: Package is out of date, hasn't been updated in 18 months, and its functionality is actually part of python-plotly. It also builds from the same sources, though it uses PyPI instead of Git as its source.
