by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openmeetings-mysql- connector-java [2]: Unneeded slightly older duplicate of mysql-connector-java. [a] The latest version of openmeetings works with the latest version of mysql-connector-java; no need for a different, separately managed dependency version for it.

[PRQ#62446] Deletion Request for websocketpp-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Aug '24

31 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for websocketpp-git [2]: Useless, abandoned since 2020, functionally a duplicate of Arch/extra/websocketpp. Because this uses upstream's master branch, which is always exactly the same commit version as the latest stable release. Votes: 2; Popularity: 0.000000. Last comment apart from mine is from 2020. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/websocketpp-git/

[PRQ#62443] Deletion Request for gabedit
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Aug '24

31 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gabedit [2]: Package has always been broken on Arch Linux since its submission in 2021, and upstream has been abandoned since that year. Now the legacy pangox-compat dependency can no longer be built with gcc 14. As the last comment is also from 3 years ago, maybe there is not much demand fo this package, so it can be safely deleted from the AUR. There are very good, working, and actively developed alternatives for computational chemistry use cases, like avogadroapp, available on AUR.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lidarquadtree-git [2]: Broken, abandoned pkg from 2017. Upstream not touched since 10 years ago. [a] Explicit dependency is in the exact same condition, and cannot be built by its PKGBUILD's make execution, because there is no Makefile in that git repo.
