[PRQ#44427] Deletion Request for gimp-brush-max-512
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gimp-brush-max-512 [2]: Abandoned, outdated variant/duplicate of repo's gimp package. Last updated in 2022-05. The only change is a reduced maximum allowed brush size. But the brush size can be customized in GUI; one doesn't need a patched source code to not use larger than 512px brushes.

[PRQ#44425] Deletion Request for lib32-libraw
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-libraw [2]: No 32-bit package needs this library anymore to access digital camera RAW files. Its last consumer was lib32-gegl, but it no longer depends on this. (The latter is used transitively by some legacy Canon scanner drivers on AUR). So it is safe to delete this orphan and unneeded package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-libraw/

[PRQ#44417] Deletion Request for parallel-rust
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for parallel-rust [2]: Proposal to delete this alternative implementation from 2017 of repo's 'parallel'. The latter comes from GNU. The GitHub repository has been archived. [a] While the description there points to a rewrite of this tool, but that is for Redox OS, a purely Rust-based, Unix-like microkernel operatin system. Also, there seems to be no interest here in either this old parallel- rust or in the new redox-parallel.
