[PRQ#45063] Deletion Request for mongoose-server
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Oct '23

02 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mongoose-server [2]: This minimal wrapper around the http server named mongoose has last been released in 2016. [a] Supposedly it was for mongoose 6. Current mongoose is at v7.11. It is doubtful that this old wrapper would work with that. Also upstream project name is misleading, can be considered hostile: mongoose is a (http) server, so naming an unrelated project mongoose- server is problematic at the least. Packaging is also wrong: this wrapper embeds mongoose in a way that instructs cmake to download mongoose from its repo during build. Anyway, it's best to delete this deprecated package.

[PRQ#45059] Deletion Request for ros-build-tools-py3
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Oct '23

02 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ros-build-tools-py3 [2]: Orphan package from 2020; upstream discontinued since same year. [a] The successor utility is ros-build-tools, available on AUR. All maintained ROS packages already depend on the latter. The currently supported ROS Noetic release only supports Python3; this older build tool was only used when there were both Python2 and Python3 packages in the earlier, now EOL releases.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Oct '23

02 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-plac-git [2]: Abandoned orphan VCS package from 2017. As there is no visible interest in this, I recommend deletion.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Oct '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-umsgpack [2]: Deprecated Python library from 2015. The AUR package never worked. But it is not actually needed by its two dependents.
