MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-pickleshare [2]:

This has already been deleted in response to PRQ#48172 (2023-09-29) [a].

Now it got recreated dead-on-arrival, without declaring a needed dependency.

The submitter, Pellegrino Prevete (dual aliases on AUR: @tallero, @truocolo) was MIA for almost the entire year of 2023, but when he's back, he typically pushes broken packages and broken updates.

As reverse dependency ipython2 has been dead on AUR since 2021, and got deleted already once, it does not make sense to keep this package.

ipython2 has been recreated DOA in 2023-07 and no user commented on it all throughout the year.

As per AUR submission guidelines, packages kept here should be in demand by more than a few users. These builds clearly don't hit that particular bar.

FYI @Muflone, this is also a defiant resubmit of a broken package.
