[PRQ#53365] Deletion Request for python2-backports.shutil_get_terminal_size
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Mar '24

18 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-backports.shutil_get_terminal_size [2]: This has already been deleted twice in response to: - PRQ#30859 (2021-12-18) [a] - PRQ#48185 (2023-09-29) [b] Now it got recreated dead-on-arrival, failing the integrity check. This is very typical with submitter Pellegrino Prevete's packages (who is both @tallero and @truocolo) He is prone to pushing broken commits to AUR repos. Reverse dependency ipython2 has been dead on AUR since 2021, and already got deleted once: - PRQ#31463 (2022-01-12) [c] It does not make sense to keep either packages, as no user commented throughout the AUR existence of either, apart from him and me in the last few days. As per AUR submission guidelines, packages kept here should be in demand by more than a few users. These broken builds clearly don't hit that particular bar.
