[PRQ#49280] Deletion Request for erg-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for erg-bin [2]: Broken, abandoned foreign binary build from 2022. Source array points to a suspicious third-party server that does not seem related to the project. [a] Also, opening that URL leads to '500: internal server error'. It seems better to keep only AUR/erg, which is newer and is in a much better shape. [a]: https://yuioto- onedrive.vercel.app/api/raw/?path=/tmp/erg/bin/erg-v0.5.9-x86_64 [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/erg-bin/

[PRQ#49338] Deletion Request for qt5-webchannel-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qt5-webchannel-git [2]: Not useful to keep this package. Qt5 is EOL since May 2023. This PKGBUILD currently builds from upstream's dev branch for Qt6, and has a pkgver() that does not properly guarantee monotonic increase. But it's better to drop it, since extra/qt5* packages use newer sources than Qt Group's Qt5 branch, and get frequently updated, akin to a git VCS package.

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

27 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for voltmc [2]: Uses sudo with cp inside package(), disguised VCS build that declares the source wrongly even for such. The violations were politely pointed out by @kleintux on 2022-12-15; maintainer did nothing. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/voltmc/
