[PRQ#63017] Deletion Request for discord-gdpr-privacy-request
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Sep '24

04 Sep '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for discord-gdpr-privacy-request [2]: Not useful for other users. Self-made script of submitter, hosted inside the AURgit repo. No documentation, despite needing a specifically formatted user config file. Supposedly the purpose of this is to troll/spam Discord with regularly resending frivolous GDPR personal data requests to "make them work". This is bad faith behavior and is not what data privacy laws are intended for. Also the AUR is not meant for one-person scripts, nor for hosting source code. And also not for promoting spam, trolling, or abuse of laws and terms of service of online service providers.

[PRQ#63016] Deletion Request for fakeaur
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Sep '24

04 Sep '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for fakeaur [2]: Non-useful personal spoof script of submitter. VCS package in disguise. Has hardcoded pkgver=V3, which is a higher value than what is generated by the pkgver() function. So AUR helpers/notifiers will always show the local installed package as outdated. GitHub repo's description [a]: “ Just a joke script that will sed AUR package names and descriptions into funny ones ” Votes: 0; Popularity: 0.000000. First submitted: 2018-09-17. Comments: only 1, from owner. No one uses this and it provides no benefit to keep it.
