[aur-requests] [PRQ#35525] Deletion Request for python2-pytype
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Jul '22

02 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-pytype [2]: This package doesn't work but it's not needed anymore. (Last updated in 2018.) Google has dropped the module's Python 2 support in 2020. Nothing in AUR require this version (both two virtual dependents need the Python 3 package). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-pytype/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35512] Deletion Request for python2-paste-deploy
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Jul '22

02 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-paste-deploy [2]: Only the Python 2 based Loggerhead package used this. That was the "web interface for Bazaar reposotories", and was discontinued in 2011. Now it's already gone from AUR, so functionally nothing uses this anymore. It is available for Python 3 if someone needs to use the capabilities it can provide. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python2-paste-deploy/

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35509] Deletion Request for python2-guidata
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Jul '22

02 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-guidata [2]: Also a very old package extending python2-pyqt. Last updated in 2016. Formerly it supported both Qt4 and Qt5, but now the newer Qt5 Python2 module is already gone. Its last dependent on AUR was python2-guiqwt. [a] That was deleted recently after I prompted the maintainer that there is a newer version of that, but only for Python 3. Therefore this package is without any consumer now. As there is Python 3 support for the same purpose, I'd say it's safe to delete this unneeded and not really functional Python 2 based package.

[aur-requests] [PRQ#35406] Orphan Request for clfft
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Jul '22

02 Jul '22

acxz [1] filed an orphan request for clfft [2]: This package does not build correctly, but upstream does. While they have not released a new version, it would be worth to apply the patch to this PKGBUILD, which I am willing to do after this package is orphaned.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Jul '22

01 Jul '22

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libdrm-proptest [2]: Duplicates Arch extra/libdrm and has a false description: "A test suit for libdrm that can be used to set RGB settings in wayland". Whereas in actuality this just builds libdrm from source, which is a "Userspace interface to kernel DRM services", according to its Arch package description.
