[PRQ#44908] Deletion Request for texstudio-lcd
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for texstudio-lcd [2]: Abandoned old variant from 2019 of repo's texstudio. Patched for supporting some kind of subpixel font hinting. I flagged it a year ago, but nothing happened. The package is quite a mess: defines lots of unnecessary dependencies, like qt4 in addition to qt5, python2 and python3 (neither is needed), the legacy openjpeg pkg, etc. It also builds and embeds its own poppler instead of relying on a separate package as a dependency. But it seems this package is not attracting the attention of anyone anymore: 1 vote, and only 3 comments from or before 2019. Also, in my experience, subpixel font rendering is not necessary on at least 1080p LCD screens, as per my not-very-high-end 2016 ASUS 15.4" laptop with such a screen proves.
