[PRQ#45237] Deletion Request for lib32-ibus-qt
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 11 Oct '23

11 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-ibus-qt [2]: Unused Qt4-based li32 package from 2015. It didn't have any dependents even as far back as 2015 (as per earliest existing snapshot on web.archive.org). In repo, the native-build package was last used by texmaker up until May 30, 2014, at which point this dependency was dropped. [a] I recommend deletion.

[PRQ#45235] Deletion Request for lib32-libunwind-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 11 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-libunwind-git [2]: Abandoned orphan VCS package from 2020. With non-monotonic pkgver(). But it seems there is not much interest in maintaining it here. So I think it's better to delete. Multilib repo carries the latest stable version. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-libunwind-git/

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for kodi-addon-vfs-libarchive- leia [2]: Abandoned and outdated addon from 2020 for Kodi Leia v18. But it's not needed anymore, as there's no more such version of Kodi in Arch or AUR repos, only v20.x. Safe to delete, no dependents. There's a newer addon of this for current Kodi.

[PRQ#45251] Deletion Request for lib32-sane
by mirh 11 Oct '23

What have 20 years old scanners to do with anything? Bitness of the software packages is about application support, not the hardware. And SANE is the linux api for scanners, that's it. Of course there is hardly any native 32-bit-only software nowadays, but of course wine is always the major reason. And until wow64 is actually the default (but even then really what's the harm?) I don't see why all this haste with dropping this.
