[PRQ#62171] Deletion Request for linux-fake-background-webcam-opt-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Aug '24

23 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for linux-fake-background- webcam-opt-git [2]: Abandoned and long-broken package from 2021. There is a more popular and better upstream-aligning PKGBUILD on AUR under the name 'fake-background-webcam-git'. [a] While the upstream repo name is 'Linux-Fake-Background-Webcam', I believe the latter package's submitter has chosen a better pkgname, because 'linux-*' pkgnames typically mean linux kernel variants, or (less frequently), linux kernel drivers/modules. Whereas this package does not depend on the linux kernel package at all, nor does it contain any kernel mods or drivers. Instead, it runs exclusively in userspace, and communicates with the kernel video drivers via the API's of the 'v4l2loopback-dkms' module.

[PRQ#62069] Deletion Request for openbox-xdgmenu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Aug '24

23 Aug '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openbox-xdgmenu [2]: I have fixed the formerly problematic legacy dependency, gnome-menus2. But this abandoned EOL component from 2011 seems to be unneeded now. It was conceived around 2008 to make possible the porting of Ubuntu Unity's user menu items to OpenBox. It is totally unlikely nowadays that anyone would want to convert 15-20 year old Ubuntu user menu customizations to OpenBox. Therefore I think it is quite safe to drop this from AUR, for lacking user demand. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/openbox-xdgmenu/
