by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

27 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for corsaro [2]: corsaro v2 sources seems to have been deleted from upstream, they cannot be downloaded. URL redirects to a new repo named corsaro3.

[PRQ#43821] Deletion Request for obconf_eui
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

27 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for obconf_eui [2]: Unneeded duplicate from 2020 of repo 'opconf'. Unknown what the "eui" designation was supposed to mean. Asked about it a year ago, no response. Also it depends on AUR/openbox_eui, itself an abandoned and outdated duplicate of repo openbox. Better to delete this.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

27 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for cinnamon-applet-global- appmenu [2]: Abandoned, broken package from 2018. 32-bit bin package in disguise. Source RPM's URL shows 404. Given upstream URL seems completely unrelated to this package, or the declared source. Better to delete this dubious and defunct package. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/cinnamon-applet-global-appmenu/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

27 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for sane-networking [2]: Abandoned, outdated patched variant from 2021 of repo sane. Almost a one-time effort (has just two commits two days apart). The actual nature and specific purpose of the patch is unknown. No comments, only 1 vote, and only I flagged it a year ago. Better to delete.

[PRQ#43815] Deletion Request for p7zip-jinfeihan57-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

27 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for p7zip-jinfeihan57-git [2]: Orphan VCS package for a fork of a fork of p7zip. The used source seems not to be intended to be used separately as a VCS package, rather this looks like a staging repo before jinfeihan57, repo owner submits their commits to the upstream fork (p7zip- project/p7zip), where this person is a developer.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Aug '23

27 Aug '23

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-gnome-vfs [2]: Unused orphan lib32 version of the deprecated, legacy gnome-vfs. Nothing depends on it, and seems not needed by users.
