[PRQ#46205] Deletion Request for gr-limesdr
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 05 Dec '23

05 Dec '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gr-limesdr [2]: Orphan package from 2019, for gnuradio 3.7. Last release was in 2020, for gnuradio 3.8 (EOL since 2022-01). But there's a gr-3.10 branch, and the AUR/gr-limesdr-git package uses that one. Seeing the release cadence of the project, it only makes sense to keep the VCS package. This is true for almost all GR modules, and that is the typical strategy for those on AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gr-limesdr/
