[PRQ#51157] Deletion Request for openfortivpn-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 07 Feb '24

07 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openfortivpn-git [2]: Unneeded non-VCS package, uses a fixed commit tarball from Feb 13, 2022. Repo's openfortivpn is much newer. Also it is not useful to keep even a proper VCS package, as upstream is minimally maintained, mostly with config and documentation and CI housekeeping. Moreover, the backend service, Fortinet VPN is being phased out. Users are already experiencing connection problems even with the latest stable version of this unsupported unofficial client library. Fortinet is shifting its focus to its integrated upmarket offerings for enterprises. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/openfortivpn-git/
