[aur-requests] [PRQ#35810] Deletion Request for mpq-tools-git
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mpq-tools-git [2]: Development discontinued 11 years ago. This VCS package has been defunct since its upload in 2015, because its mandatory lib dependency, libmpq-git, is using python2 during build but PKGBUILD does not declare it in makedepends. (A user pointed this out on the libmpq page in 2020 but maintainer didn't respond.) Anyway, there are currently maintained projects to read/write Blizzard MPQ files: smpq, based on stormlib. There are AUR packages for both. So it's safe to delete this deprecated one. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/mpq-tools-git/
Request #35810 has been Accepted by Muflone [1]: [Autogenerated] Accepted deletion for mpq-tools-git. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Muflone/
