And the current pkgdesc of AUR/python2-astroid is bogus. It says: "Useful miscellaneous modules used by Logilab projects" But it is not true for this package. It has nothing to do with Logilab. It is an Abstract Syntax Tree generator for Python code, which is an easy to analyze representation of that code. That's how the source quality evaluation tool python(2)-pylint was able to do its job. On 21 August 2023 03:10:10 GMT+02:00, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote:
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-astroid [2]:
python2-pylint has been deleted due to not being used or useful anymore.
So this library, which was the backbone engine for that, can be safely dropped now as well.
