by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Jan '24

21 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for php-legacy-symlinks [2]: This shim package is not useful. If there is a package that is not compatible yet with repo's PHP, that one package has to be changed or patched to depend on php-legacy or an older, version-specific php package from AUR, instead of globally force-symlinking every package that depends on repo's php to use php-legacy instead.
