[PRQ#51428] Deletion Request for rak
A_Bart [1] filed a deletion request for rak [2]: The package does not build, the maintainer seems to be too busy correcting other people's packages to maintain his own. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/A_Bart/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/rak/
the maintainer seems to be too busy correcting other people's packages to maintain his own.
Fair critique, though I only considered keeping the 'rak' namespace, not the package. As this Ruby implementation is dead (last release 2012). There's a complete rewrite of this in Raku language, which is actively developed. [a] But since adopting this pkgbase, I've realized it's not worth the effort for me to start creating all the needed 'raku-*' dependencies on AUR just for a single tool that is more a curiosity for me than any actual 'business need'. Safe to delete this dead package. (The Raku package can be installed locally with Raku-specific package manager tools, no need to put it on AUR for someone to be able to give it a try.)
