[PRQ#52830] Deletion Request for gtk2-youtube-viewer
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gtk2-youtube-viewer [2]: Does not work - cannot be built. And has a wrong name. This is not a variant of gtk2, nor it is a plugin to gtk2. It was meant to be a 'youtube-viewer' package built with Gtk2 GUI. 0 votes/comments. Seems no one is using this. There are other packages on AUR for youtube-viewer.

[PRQ#52863] Deletion Request for obs-studio-tytan652
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for obs-studio-tytan652 [2]: Badly packaged personal build, missing runtime depends. Essentially a duplicate of extra repo's obs-studio. So it is not useful or needed to keep. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/obs-studio-tytan652/

[PRQ#50197] Deletion Request for apache-ant-cpptasks
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for apache-ant-cpptasks [2]: This legacy, beta version ant build addon from 2008 is not used by any other PKGBUILDs on AUR. Therefore I recommend deletion. Upstream project discontinued since 2008, without ever having produced a stable release. Even Apache Ant itself is considered a legacy build tool, not used in new projects, only in old ones that still rely on it. So there's no chance that this niche experimental cpp build addon is widely needed. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/apache-ant-cpptasks/

[PRQ#49125] Deletion Request for i2p-controller
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for i2p-controller [2]: Unused PyQt4 application from 2013. I recommend deletion. Also it doesn't seem useful to keep, as PyQt4 itself is broken on Python 3.12, therefore this is defunct on it as well.

[PRQ#50823] Merge Request for ibus-table-mongol-bichig-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge ibus-table-mongol-bichig-git [2] into ibus-table-others [3]: 'ibus-table-mongol-bichig' is no longer maintained by its upstream, and its contents are now part of 'ibus-table-others'. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ibus-table-mongol-bichig-git/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/ibus-table-others/

[PRQ#49529] Deletion Request for amarok-scripting
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for amarok-scripting [2]: Broken, unused legacy version of an EOL application. It's unlikely to be in use now. There's still amarok and amarok-git on AUR. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/amarok-scripting/

[PRQ#52468] Merge Request for muse-hub-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

minerscale [1] filed a request to merge muse-hub-bin [2] into muse- sounds-manager-bin [3]: muse-hub-bin has been replaced with muse-sounds-manager-bin. The root service has been replaced and it generally seems to run a lot better on Linux. For more information read here: https://musescore.org/en/4.2 Not sure if a merge or a delete is the correct move for this package but I don't think it should stay up for much longer as it's confusing.

[PRQ#51964] Merge Request for raspberry-pico-sdk-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge raspberry-pico-sdk-git [2] into pico-sdk-git [3]: Package name got harmonized with the stable AUR/pico-sdk package, and with upstream's Git repo name.

[PRQ#51958] Merge Request for blheli-configurator
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge blheli-configurator [2] into blheli-configurator-bin [3]: Eliminating duplication. Both packages use a prebuilt binary archive as source. Upstream is open-source (though not actively developed since Feb 2021).

[PRQ#49245] Merge Request for stack-static
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 23 Mar '24

23 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge stack-static [2] into stack-bin [3]: Eliminating duplication, and initiating that only the correctly named and configured package is kept. 'stack-static' uses foreign-built release tarballs, so pkgname has to have a '-bin' suffix. Also 'stack-static' doesn't set file permissions properly, because it uses mkdir and cp inside the package() function instead of utilizing the install command. It also has an incorrect replaces array. Both are up-to-date, but 'stack-bin' also has the rule-conforming name and is packaged well. Both provide 'stack', so AUR packages that depend on that can use stack-bin without any issue.
