by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

PlasticSoup [1] filed a deletion request for vim- erlang_detectvariables [2]: PKGBUILD file has had DOS line endings since at least 2010-5-10. Since no one has ever adopted and fixed the package in nearly 14 years it should be safe to delete.

[PRQ#52225] Deletion Request for tile-molester
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

PlasticSoup [1] filed a deletion request for tile-molester [2]: Package fails to build. Multiple instances of "error: invalid use of a restricted identifier 'yield'" in the build log. Given that upstream's last released was on 2003-6-12 that required Java 1.4.2, it seems unlikely the software will be made to work.

[PRQ#50216] Deletion Request for qmenu-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for qmenu-git [2]: This program has not had significant commits since 2015 except to its README file. Orphan, no votes, unneeded by other packages, and the only comment asks to fix the sources. The PKGBUILD is currently broke due to the deprecated git:// protocol, and that build() function is broken (there's no such ./go script). Also, the `Makefile` is bad because it does not use the "DESTDIR" variable, so one would need to create its own series of install(1) commands. The code compiles but gcc(1) complains about potential buffer overflows and use of `tmpnam`. All in all, I recommend deletion.

27 Feb '24
