[PRQ#49430] Deletion Request for gsoap287
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 28 Feb '24

28 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gsoap287 [2]: Abandoned, unused legacy package from 2015, with a name that does not conform to Arch package guidelines requiring only the major version number to be attached, when needed, as a suffix to pkgver (other proper Arch practice is to use dots). This PKGBUILD was for gsoap v2.8.7, not v287. The package also states it provides and conflicts with repo's gsoap, so it also violates AUR submission guidelines saying that same or different version builds of repo packages (implying such packages that cannot coexist with the repo build) should not be kept on AUR. Safe to delete: all AUR consumers actually need repo's gsoap, not this old version. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gsoap287/

[PRQ#49793] Deletion Request for garchdeps-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 28 Feb '24

28 Feb '24

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for garchdeps-git [2]: Orphan, one vote, no comments. Last upstream commit was in 2013. Broken because this is a `python2` script (though it "depends" on `python`) and because of the deprecated git:// protocol. It doesn't seem to be useful so I suggest deletion.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 28 Feb '24

28 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qt-dab-git [2]: Abandoned, broken VCS package from 2017. Last comment is from 2019. It doesn't seem like anyone is interested in maintaining it. Therefore I recommend deletion. AUR has a maintained stable package for the latest release (Oct 2023 as of now).

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 28 Feb '24

28 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for soapyosmo-git [2]: Abandoned, broken VCS package from 2017. Also, upstream not maintained since 3.5+ years. [a] I recommend deletion based on the above, and because there's only one user comment, from 2021. Repo carries the last release, which is almost identical to the master version.
