[PRQ#45315] Orphan Request for compiz-easy-patch
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

lectrode [1] filed an orphan request for compiz-easy-patch [2]: 0.9.14.2 has been out (and pkgbuild updated in my fork) for nearly a year. Now, the package can no longer build without updates to the pkgbuild. Unfortunately, the last email reply I got from the current maintainer was on 2022/08/22. I can only assume that the maintainer either has no time or is no longer able to maintain the pkgbuild in the AUR. I had previously flagged this package when that version was initially made available. Not sure why it was un-flagged.

[PRQ#45310] Deletion Request for python-pyrepl
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pyrepl [2]: Orphan Python package from 2019, one-time effort. Does not declare a source array. Instead, PKGBUILD executes pip install, which should not be used this way. Also package name is wrong: this is a CLI application, so name should be pyrepl. There's already an AUR package with that name, which still uses Python2 but should be updated to Python3.

[PRQ#45302] Deletion Request for tint2-improved
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for tint2-improved [2]: This fork of tint2 has been discontinued since 2016 [a], and current source URL is defunct: GitLab requires sign-in to proceed. Upstream is 5 years newer (2022). [b] [a]: https://gitlab.com/oskarirauta/tint2 [b]: https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2 [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/tint2-improved/

[PRQ#45301] Deletion Request for startup-notification-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for startup-notification-git [2]: This fork of FreeDesktop.org's startup-notification actually only contains one minor fix, and the 8 other commits that are just some housekeeping in the build support files. But development has stopped in 2017. [a] Upstream's last commit is from 2014. [b] Therefore I don't think it makes sense to keep a VCS package for this. Arch repo carries the last stable version.
