[aur-requests] [PRQ#35529] Deletion Request for pythoncard
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pythoncard [2]: I suggest to delete this. Last released in 2006, package last updated in 2015. In 2016 a user noted in comment that the PKGBUILD is broken because it does not have a package() function, and also it defines depends=python despite this needing python2. There are no comments since that. I think it can be safely considered abandoned and deemed not needed.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-mrjob [2]: Orphaned legacy Python 2 package, last updated in 2015. Safe to delete; nothing depends on it. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-mrjob/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35527] Deletion Request for python2-json-tricks
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-json-tricks [2]: I suggest to delete this orphaned and legacy Python 2 package. Last updated to v3.8 in 2017 (last PyPI release is from 2020). Nothing depends on it, there are no comments, and it seems it has been neglected during the last 5 years due to not being needed.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35526] Deletion Request for python2-google-compute-engine-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-google-compute- engine-git [2]: This VCS package has become obsoleted by upstream changes. First, setup.py was moved to different dir on 14 Dec 2018 (commit f773905cc0a70927c7180dd60d939fbf21264c92). Later, the Python package has been marked deprecated on 29 Apr 2020 (PR#887). It has not received any further updates. Therefore I suggest deleting this package, as it no longer can serve its former purpose. Safe to do so; nothing depends on it.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35524] Deletion Request for python-wq-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-wq-git [2]: This small Python utility seems to have not been developed for the past 2 years. Also this VCS package does not work because it misses at least one needed dependency. (Last updated in 2018.) There is another problem. This package uses @esheldon's wq [a] package but they have not published their code to PyPI or anywhere else. Basically this seems like a private project. Whereas on PyPI, there exists a totally unrelated 'wq' module since 2013, which has been continuously receiving updates (last in Apr 2022). [b] The latter's GitHub URL path is wq/wq. [c] Therefore this python-wq-git utility package should have some distinguishing name, to not clash with the mainstream PyPI 'wq' module. But anyway, as this has not been updated in 4 years, I suggest deletion. Nothing depends on it on AUR. [a]: https://github.com/esheldon/wq [b]: https://pypi.org/project/wq/ [c]: https://github.com/wq/wq [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-wq-git/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35522] Deletion Request for python-lasagne-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-lasagne-git [2]: Orphaned VCS package; the project has not seen any updates since 3 years ago. Reported not to build/test properly with Python 3.8+. [a] Its core dependency is python-theano, itself discontinued in 2018. Nothing depends on this or its provides=python-lasagne on AUR. So I suggest deletion.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35521] Deletion Request for python-pymc3
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pymc3 [2]: Orphaned legacy package, last updated 2 years ago. This year, the project renamed its Python 3 module to PyMC (without the number '3' in the name), and released v4.0.0. [a] It seems there is no interest in AUR community to maintain this one. But as nothing depends on this package here, I suggest deletion. [a]: https://pypi.org/project/pymc/4.0.0/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-pymc3/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35520] Deletion Request for python-theano-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-theano-git [2]: Discontinued in 2020. Forked by the PyMC project, they've created and published a new module named Aesara, based on the original Theano. AUR still carries the last stable python-theano legacy package. No need for a VCS build anymore. Safe to delete this. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-theano-git/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35518] Deletion Request for python-pymc3-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pymc3-git [2]: VCS package broken and unmaintained since 2017, according to comment. (Last update submitted in 2016.) In 2022, PyMC3 was renamed PyMC and released v4.0.0. Therefore a VCS package for the old name and v3 is no longer useful. Safe to delete this package as it never defined a correct provides field, so nothing depends on it. (AUR carries the stable versions of both the legacy python-pymc3 and the new python-pymc packages.)

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35517] Deletion Request for odio-appimage
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for odio-appimage [2]: This "free radio streaming" software seems to have been wiped off the face of the Earth. Its website odio.io is gone, also its GitHub repo which only contained binary releases is deleted (404). In the Web Archive's last snapshot made in March 2022, it seems they have renamed themselves 'Strimio'. But the current odio.io redirects to strimio.com and then cannot reach the server. Anyway, seems the whole service got discontinued and the app cannot be revived either under its old or new name. This package, therefore, has lost its useful purpose.
