by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge autopsy-bin [2] into autopsy [3]: 'autopsy-bin' is an unmaintained duplicate of 'autopsy', which is kept properly up-to-date.

[PRQ#48069] Deletion Request for biicode
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for biicode [2]: Broken, not just because of totally incompetent packaging, missing half a dozen undeclared Python2 dependencies, but also because this is an online-only package manager tool, like the pacman -S functionality, or pip install [modulename], without an available server. If someone installs the required Python2 packages, biicode just makes a web call to a nonexistent Heroku PaaS container with a hardcoded URL: https://biiserverproduction.herokuapp.com/ And then it does not do anything: all it responds every time is, even to the '--help' invocation: ERROR: None or bad command. Type "bii --help" for available commands The company that created biicode is defunct since 2015. This tool is dead without its online repository / metadata server. By the way the package bundles not just the client but the server as well, which is totally bogus. And also defunct, relying on a long-EOL mongodb server.

[PRQ#47910] Deletion Request for sweeper-frameworks-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sweeper-frameworks-git [2]: Broken, abandoned KDE app VCS package from 2020. Cannot be built anymore. Package name is obsolete: it was meant to indicate using the 'frameworks' (meaning: KDE Frameworks 5) branch, which no longer exists. Upstream uses Qt6 now, but this build is still on Qt5. Not useful to keep. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/sweeper-frameworks-git/

[PRQ#46642] Deletion Request for mutter-ubuntu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mutter-ubuntu [2]: Unmaintained and unneeded package. Submitted on 2022-07-28 and never updated. Nothing consumes this, and it also does not depend on the other '-ubuntu' variant packages from AUR (all of which are unmaintained btw, and none of them correspond anymore to Ubuntu's current latest stable version). There are no comments. I think it is better to delete this. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/mutter-ubuntu/
