by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for zerynth-studio [2]: Broken; discontinued since 2019. And the successor SDK and developer environment is named differently, and is not publicly available. Also the orphan legacy dependency 'gconf' fails to build from source with current gcc 14. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/zerynth-studio/

[PRQ#62716] Deletion Request for shiba-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for shiba-bin [2]: Broken due to unbuildable legacy dependency/chain electron2, or electron2-bin←gconf. Upstream has not released a new stable binary since 2018. [a] Development in the master branch is still ongoing, so it seems a source-built shiba-git package *might* still be viable to submit to AUR. Also, Electron runs with setuid/setgid (providing a form of passwordless root process execution potential), so the 6-year old Electron2 is extremely insecure and should be avoided.

[PRQ#62705] Deletion Request for python-freesms
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-freesms [2]: Discontinued, defunct self-developed Python library of submitter, with misleading name and pkgdesc, and no reverse dependencies. This never provided "free sms" services, only the initiation of "SMS to self" notification messages using a SIM card with a contract from for-pay French mobile service provider named "Free Mobile". The library no longer works, as the provider switched the API from asking for and accepting a username and password sent in cleartext, to requiring a user-enabled, auto-generated unique, static API token. The latter is not supported by this legacy Python module that is out of development for 3+ years.
