[PRQ#47180] Deletion Request for scylla
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for scylla [2]: Unused, broken Python2 based package from 2018. Only scylla-bin works, which is up-to-date, as upstream only supports quite old build toolchains but never the ones available in Arch repos.

[PRQ#47172] Deletion Request for bamf-ubuntu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for bamf-ubuntu [2]: There's no longer any difference between Ubuntu's bamf source and upstream's, used in repo bamf package. Ubuntu/Debian only adds some distro-specific installation configuration to the vanilla bamf source. Therefore I recommend deleting this package. Same version is in repo.

[PRQ#47168] Deletion Request for openvpn-dco
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for openvpn-dco [2]: This has become the duplicate of repo's openvpn since Mar 09, 2023 (2.6.1-1). Because starting with that release, upstream enables the dco feature by default in configure, and repo's PKGBUILD does not disable it. When this is enabled during build, it creates a runtime link-level dependency on libnl-genl-3.so, provided by the libnl package. Repo's openvpn does have that link-level binding to said shared object (SO) library. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/openvpn-dco/

[PRQ#47156] Deletion Request for remmina-gtk2
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for remmina-gtk2 [2]: Unmaintained, broken pkg for the last gtk2 release from 2018 of this remote desktop GUI client. Source 404. Also its mandatory dependency, freerdp-102 is also an unmaintained package. I've reported it to be broken in 2022-03. Apart from my comment, no one else left a message here since 2018, so it is safe to assume that AUR users apart from the maintainer don't need this.
