[aur-requests] [PRQ#36746] Deletion Request for ngxtop
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ngxtop [2]: Dead Python2 based project - got forked to ngxtop-ce (available on AUR). The latter supports Python3. Meanwhile this package is defunct, because its mandatory dependency python2-tabulate is gone, and AUR/python2-tabulate-git does not actually support Python 2 anymore so it needs to be dropped. Safe to delete - nothing depends on it as it is an end-user CLI app. Moreover, the continuation fork - ngxtop-ce - is already mentioned here in a comment from 2020 so users had a chance to get informed about it.

Correction; It seems its Python 3 port, ngxtop-ce is also discontinued. But anyhow, ngxtop itself is still a defunct project and this package doesn't work because of the missing Py2 dependency. I think this CLI app was likely not essential, otherwise it would not have become ababdoned. There should be supported ways to gather metrics from a running Nginx server and its internal processes already. On 3 August 2022 06:07:31 GMT+02:00, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote:
