[PRQ#62409] Deletion Request for lynx-menu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for lynx-menu [2]: Resubmission of PRQ#50282 (originally rejected due to many requests). The reasoning still stands: Cleanup after dropping the broken, unused lynx-dock (PRQ#50280). Also PKGBUILD executes sudo inside package().

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for perl-moosex-markasmethods [2]: EOL since 2012, broken if there is a space in the source dir's path. No longer needed though by any other builds.

[PRQ#62368] Deletion Request for mail-notification
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mail-notification [2]: Abandoned, broken VCS package in disguise. Upstream maintenance discontinued since 11 years ago. [a] Fails to build for the last 3+ years due problems with gnome-doc- utils, which have not been resolved by the latter's new maintainer. I think it's safe to delete this. There are working alternatives. Popularity: 0.000000; Last comment is from 2012.

[PRQ#62366] Deletion Request for robwork
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for robwork [2]: Abandoned pkg from 2020. Broken since at least 2022, as I flagged it on 2022-06-11 for source being unavailable (404 not found). It still is the case. It seems upstream stopped publishing stable tags since 2.5 years ago (Feb 2022) [a], and switched to a rolling development model (the 'devel' branch continually receives commits, but not the 'master' branch'). As there is seemingly zero maintainer or user interest in this broken AUR build, I think it's safe to delete it. Votes: 0; Popularity: 0.000000; Comments: 0; Reverse dependencies: 0.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for titus [2]: Broken, abandoned package from 2016. Fails to build from source. Upstream repo has been discontinued since 2020 and archived since 2021.

[PRQ#62362] Deletion Request for unicon
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for unicon [2]: Abandoned pkg, fails to build since 2022 (as per AUR comment). As of today there are additional reasons for build failure: passing argument(s) from incompatible pointer types (this is an error on gcc 14). Upstream has not released any new version since 2020. [a] It seems a git build could be viable, as upstream has switched to a rolling maintenance model, only publishing git commits, but not tags. Package seems not used: Votes: 0; Popularity: 0.000000 [a]: https://github.com/uniconproject/unicon/tags [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/unicon/

[PRQ#62360] Deletion Request for revolt-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for revolt-git [2]: Abandoned pkg from 2017. Upstream not actively maintained. AUR/revolt is up-to-date with upstream's last commit. Therefore I don't think there is any benefit in keeping this orphan build for the same commit. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/revolt-git/
