[PRQ#45816] Merge Request for audacium
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Nov '23

04 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge audacium [2] into tenacity [3]: I propose this package merge, as Audacium upstream has announced in Jan 2023 that they officially merged with the Tenacity project and repo. [a] The Audacium repo has been archived since. [a] AUR users should be well-informed now, as @dreieck was kind enough to mention this change in a comment in Feb 2023, and his comment is the last one on the AUR/audacium page. [a]: https://github.com/Audacium/audacium [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/audacium/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tenacity/

[PRQ#45815] Deletion Request for ietf-id2xml
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Nov '23

04 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ietf-id2xml [2]: Unmaintained niche tool for the RFC-Editor staff at IETF. AUR package is an orphan, and has a wrong name prefix. [a] I think it is safe to delete. It's easy to install the latest version from PyPI, whereas it's not useful to have a potentially outdated variant on AUR. [a]: https://pypi.org/project/id2xml/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ietf-id2xml/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Nov '23

04 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for dhtfs [2]: Orphan package from 2015, experimental fuse2 and python2 based tagging file system, not developed since that year. [a] The AUR package fails to download sources since 2022-03, but it has not been flagged, and there are no comments. Nothing depends on it. Safe to delete. [a]: https://github.com/mayuresh/dhtfs [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/dhtfs/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Nov '23

04 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for wikipediafs [2]: Unmaintained fuse2 and python2 based virtual filesystem from 2015. [a] [b] Even the official website states it is not maintained. Last comments on the SourceForge project page are from 2015 as well, and I was not able to find a mailing list address. Last AUR comments are from 2013. [a]: https://sourceforge.net/projects/wikipediafs/ [b]: https://wikipediafs.sourceforge.net/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wikipediafs/

[PRQ#45803] Deletion Request for bind-rl
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 04 Nov '23

04 Nov '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for bind-rl [2]: Outdated orphan variant from 2022-01 of repo's bind package. While it is true that this build has a small addition, I don't think it is useful to keep, as it is very outdated. And no one even flagged it. It has only 1 vote and 3 comments, from 2018. Repo package provides both 'bind' and 'bind-tools'. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/bind-rl/
