[PRQ#49043] Deletion Request for ffmpeg-nonvidia
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ffmpeg-nonvidia [2]: By the name of this package, it is essentially a duplicate of extra/ffmpeg: 'nvidia-utils' is only an optional dependency of the latter, so it provides the same functionality if nvidia-utils is not installed. Any other minor discrepancies just mean that this package is named wrongly for how it is different from repo's ffmpeg. There's already an AUR/ffmpeg-amd-full; this package is actually minimally different from that. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ffmpeg-nonvidia/

[PRQ#49125] Deletion Request for i2p-controller
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for i2p-controller [2]: Unused PyQt4 application from 2013. I recommend deletion. Also it doesn't seem useful to keep, as PyQt4 itself is broken on Python 3.12, therefore this is defunct on it as well.

[PRQ#49529] Deletion Request for amarok-scripting
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for amarok-scripting [2]: Broken, unused legacy version of an EOL application. It's unlikely to be in use now. There's still amarok and amarok-git on AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/amarok-scripting/

[PRQ#49245] Merge Request for stack-static
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge stack-static [2] into stack-bin [3]: Eliminating duplication, and initiating that only the correctly named and configured package is kept. 'stack-static' uses foreign-built release tarballs, so pkgname has to have a '-bin' suffix. Also 'stack-static' doesn't set file permissions properly, because it uses mkdir and cp inside the package() function instead of utilizing the install command. It also has an incorrect replaces array. Both are up-to-date, but 'stack-bin' also has the rule-conforming name and is packaged well. Both provide 'stack', so AUR packages that depend on that can use stack-bin without any issue.

[PRQ#49295] Merge Request for qt-avif-image-plugin-libavif-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge qt-avif-image-plugin-libavif-git [2] into qt5-avif-image-plugin-git [3]: Eliminating duplication; also 'qt5-avif-image-plugin-git' has the more appropriate name and is packaged better. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/qt-avif-image-plugin-libavif-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/qt5-avif-image-plugin-git/

[PRQ#49762] Merge Request for libbladerf-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge libbladerf-git [2] into bladerf- git [3]: Eliminating duplication. Extra repo's name for this is bladerf. Both VCS packages are for the same library.

[PRQ#49928] Merge Request for dsd
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge dsd [2] into dsd-git [3]: 'dsd' is a disguised, wrong VCS package, using master.tar.gz as source. Also, the original dsd upstream is essentially dead, unmaintained. So 'dsd-git' now builds the actively developed successor fork.

[PRQ#49523] Merge Request for lprng-cups
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge lprng-cups [2] into lprng [3]: Eliminating duplication, and also rationalizing packages. Currently, 'lprng-cups' doesn't include cups files, and 'lprng' does. It should be the other way around, or at least 'lprng' should be the one that doesn't conflict with cups. Please kindly adopt the currently orphan 'lprng', update it, and change its packaging to make it capable of coexisting with cups.

[PRQ#49805] Deletion Request for makemeasandwich-nosudo-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Mar '24

21 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for makemeasandwich-nosudo-git [2]: Broken, unused VCS package from 2015, for a simple tech demonstration based on jQuery, Node.js, and the long obsolete Phantom.js. 1 vote, 0 comments. Seems no one needs this on AUR anymore. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/makemeasandwich-nosudo-git/
