[PRQ#49757] Merge Request for iortcw
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Feb '24

21 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge iortcw [2] into iortcw-git [3]: Upstream's last stable release was in 2019 [a], which is what AUR/iortcw was for. Sadly, it depends on the nonexistent libbloom. 'iortcw-git' is a fresher PKGBUILD, and it no longer requires libbloom. Upstream's master branch is actively developed. It makes sense to keep only the git package, as that is the only working one. [a]: https://github.com/iortcw/iortcw/tags [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/iortcw/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/iortcw-git/

[PRQ#51217] Deletion Request for mingw-w64-libevent
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Feb '24

21 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mingw-w64-libevent [2]: Clean of unmaintained, but unneeded library, after deleting its defunct, unused consumer from 2015 with missing source: mingw-w64-ccnet (PRQ#51186). [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/mingw-w64-libevent/

[PRQ#51842] Deletion Request for libmemcache
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 21 Feb '24

21 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libmemcache [2]: Unused, broken client library implementation by FreeBSD; discontinued since 2006. [a] Safe to delete, as nothing on AUR depends on it, and even original submitter commented last year that they no longer have any downstream consumer applications to use or test this with. [a]: https://people.freebsd.org/~seanc/libmemcache/ [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/libmemcache/

[PRQ#49167] Merge Request for traxtor
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Feb '24

19 Feb '24

gtsiam [1] filed a request to merge traxtor [2] into tractor [3]: These two are the same package. I'm separately trying to update that package to build directly from source. Since upstream (and debian) chooses the name tractor, we should use that instead.

[PRQ#48066] Deletion Request for nodejs-addons-linter
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 19 Feb '24

19 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for nodejs-addons-linter [2]: I've just found out that this package that hasn't been updated since 2019 executs 'npm install --user root', which is forbidden in submitted PKGBUILDs. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/nodejs-addons-linter/

[PRQ#52782] Deletion Request for chwala
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Feb '24

18 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for chwala [2]: Upstream discontinued this since 2015. Now the source tarballs are also no longer hosted by them. So this package is dead. (Kolab has actually been refactored to be more integrated, therefore the main Kolab suite carries a built-in file management web application.)
