[PRQ#42610] Deletion Request for pulseaudio-nosystemd-minimal-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pulseaudio-nosystemd- minimal-git [2]: Unneeded variant VCS package from 2021. Maintainer MIA from AUR since 2021 and does not respond to emails. Package uses a wrong pkgver() implementation that does not guarantee monotonic increase. (Basically all of @shoober420's git packages have this error. And he never replied to me or addressed this or any other issue since I notified him a year ago.) Package seems not needed: it has only 1 vote, and only owner commented once, in 2021.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for pulseaudio-nosystemd-git [2]: Abandoned variant VCS package from 2021. Owner MIA from then. pkgver() is wrong: no guarantee for monotonicity. 1 vote, only 1 comment from owner from 2021. Seems safe to assume it's not needed by users.

[PRQ#42833] Deletion Request for jarvis
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for jarvis [2]: It is unknown what this application does. No website, empty GitHub readme, no documentation whatsoever. [a] AUR description in Chinese, translated text says: "A data analysis and display platform (version number higher than 1.0.0 can be used normally)" There is no 1.0.0 version. Seems it was developed over the course of one month between September and October 2022. [b] I recommend deletion.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for perl-moosex-event [2]: Abandoned Perl module from 2011, seems like a rough, unfinished project. Nothing depends on it on AUR.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for supermemo18.05-git [2]: This is not a VCS package: uses fixed commits and release tarballs. Also its quite a bad packaging job. It bundles in multiple programs, even an AppImage release of WINE! Please delete. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/supermemo18.05-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for boost-numeric-bindings-svn [2]: The SVN repo seems to have been deleted.
