[PRQ#48646] Merge Request for dr14_tmeter
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Nov '23

07 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge dr14_tmeter [2] into dr14_t.meter-git [3]: Upstream hasn't released a stable tag/tarball since Jan 2015 (9.5 years ago). [a] But there's been continued development in the project's GitHub repo [b], where the code from SourceForge got migrated to. Last tarball release is v1.0.16 from 2015. But the GitHub code's internal version is v2.0.0 (untagged). Its setup.py metadata classifies the 'Development Status' as 'Stable'. The last master branch commit as of now is from October 2022. [b] AUR/dr14_t.meter-git is maintained actively. Therefore I propose this merge. At this point, it seems to make sense to keep only the VCS pkg, and directing users to install that one instead of the deprecated fixed-version build. [a]: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dr14tmeter/files/dr14tmeter-1.0.16/ [b]: https://github.com/simon-r/dr14_t.meter [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/dr14_tmeter/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/dr14_t.meter-git/

[PRQ#48706] Merge Request for python-pyvcf
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Nov '23

07 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge python-pyvcf [2] into python- pyvcf3 [3]: python-pyvcf3 is a drop-in continuation fork of PyVCF. python-pyvcf is EOL since 2016 and only compatible with Python 2.6-3.4. Both packages provide the 'vcs' directory, therefore they both have the same importable module name. 'python-pyvcf3' virtually provides the 'python-pyvcf' name.

[PRQ#48716] Merge Request for mecab
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Nov '23

07 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge mecab [2] into mecab-git [3]: mecab PKGBUILD downloads a source tarball made in 2012 from a personal Google Drive instead of the project's public GitHub. But actually it doesn't make sense to keep a stable, fixed-version pkg, as upstream seems to not create version tags or releases. Maintainer of AUR/mecab also advised users that their best choice is to switch to the git package.
