[PRQ#43840] Deletion Request for xboxdrv-sl6566bk
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xboxdrv-sl6566bk [2]: I think this modded xboxdrv should be deleted. It just hacks the (8 year old) xboxdrv source with a hard-coded hex value, replacing a dynamic query. The purpose was to make it work with the xbox controller clone Speedlink SL-6566-BK. I think it now works only with that device. Seems like the patch creator didn't bother looking up how to enter additional supported device hwids instead of dumbing down the logic of the code. The Speedlink SL-6566-BK controller was first marketed in 2013 and is long discontinued. The xboxdrv project has not created new tagged releases since 8 years, but there are many new commits. This package has not been kept up-to- date with any updates since 2018. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/xboxdrv-sl6566bk/
