[PRQ#42631] Deletion Request for ffmpeg-yt-dlp-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ffmpeg-yt-dlp-bin [2]: This package is not proper. Source links to an ever-changing foreign binary tarball build of ffmpeg, without hash checking. Like a VCS package but for pre-built package. As it is, it is not useful to have as a pacman package. Pkgver is a dummy string and not the actual version of the build. Users won't ever get notified about updates. Also the build is not reproducible. And also this is totally superfluous: Arch repo carries latest stable ffmpeg, and there are VCS packages for ffmpeg on AUR. There are also third-party Arch repos that build VCS packages from AUR.

[PRQ#42627] Deletion Request for xdg-desktop-portal-xapp-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xdg-desktop-portal-xapp-bin [2]: Unnecessarily duplicates repo package: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/xdg-desktop-portal-xapp/ The stated reason for having this package is a temporary slowdown issue discussed on Manjaro forum and which was promptly resolved. No need for this package. AUR is not for resolving packaging/configuration/etc issues of neither Arch nor downstream distros.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Jul '23

23 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-hdl-checker [2]: This new CLI application package should be deleted and resubmitted under a rule-conforming name: hdl-checker -or- hdl_checker Arch wiki's Python package guidelines are quite clear: [a] > Package naming > > For Python 3 library modules, use python-modulename.
