[PRQ#46891] Deletion Request for teamviewer-quicksupport
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Jan '24

14 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for teamviewer-quicksupport [2]: Broken, abandoned package. Not useful to keep as is. Maintaining this PKGBUILD was/would be a pain, because the vendor does not provide versioned release archives, just replaces the same file on their server with newer versions. This breaks the checksum based src verification upon every release. And there is no release announcement published by upstream on any channel. Also, this lightweight TeamViewer variant is not intended to be installed in the system, instead, it is meant to be a download-and- run, "I need remote support quickly now" use case. Anyone wishing to install a proper TeamViewer should look for that keyword on AUR and find working packages. AFAIK the regular TeamViewer releases also work without a paid license for requesting (allowing) remote control. Better to delete this superfluous and defunct package.

[PRQ#46605] Deletion Request for lib32-allegro4
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 14 Jan '24

14 Jan '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-allegro4 [2]: Reported broken since 2022, not fixed since. But it has not been needed by anything on AUR after 2021-07, when its last consumer, AUR/racer has switched to making a native build on x86_64. Therefore I recommend deletion.
