[PRQ#57379] Merge Request for wechat-beta-bwrap
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

Kimiblock [1] filed a request to merge wechat-beta-bwrap [2] into wechat-uos-bwrap [3]: This package is basically wechat-uos-bwrap, with no sandboxing which means this proprietary app can obtain any system data or user data The reason why wechat-uos-bwrap doesn’t come with beta in name is the fact that the app doesn’t recognize itself as a beta [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Kimiblock/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-uos-bwrap/

[PRQ#57762] Merge Request for wechat-beta-bwrap
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 01 Sep '24

01 Sep '24

7Ji [1] filed a request to merge wechat-beta-bwrap [2] into wechat- universal-bwrap [3]: The native Linux client `Wechat (Beta)` was released as `Wechat (Universal)` on the Uniontech OS appstore officially [a], being a distinct package (`com.tencent.wechat`) from the previous `wechat-uos` package (`com.tencent.weixin`, available on AUR as `wechat-uos`[b] and `wechat-uos-bwrap`[c]). As this is official, having `beta` in the name does not make sense any more. To make this distinct from the previous package that's not built natively for Linux, I've created a new PKGBUILD `wechat-universal- bwrap`, please merge the `-beta` into `-universal`. [a]: https://bbs.chinauos.com/zh/post/17786 [b]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wechat-uos [c]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wechat-uos-bwrap [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/7Ji/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-beta-bwrap/ [3] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wechat-universal-bwrap/

[PRQ#57625] Deletion Request for gtk3-ubuntu
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 May '24

18 May '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gtk3-ubuntu [2]: This package is not very actively maintained, and now completely superfluous: all core patches made by Debian/Ubuntu have been upstreamed to main gtk3 release. Only a few Ubuntu-exclusive (theme, menu etc.) modifications remain in their packaging. [a] None of which are relevant on Arch Linux. Safe to delete this now. [a]: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome- team/gtk3/-/blob/4508d83a/debian/changelog [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/gtk3-ubuntu/

[PRQ#57980] Deletion Request for meson-rust
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 May '24

18 May '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for meson-rust [2]: This modded variant of Arch repo's rust continues to be broken in build or in testing. The experimental patch used here is abandoned since Nov 2023. [a] Does not seem useful to keep on AUR, if it never works. [a]: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/12536/commits [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/meson-rust/

11 May '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for jdk11-openjdk-dcevm [2]: EOL foreign build from 2 years ago [a] of the open-source jdk11-openjdk, with wrong package name (should have had the '-bin' suffix). Not useful to keep. [a]: https://github.com/TravaOpenJDK/trava-jdk-11-dcevm [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/jdk11-openjdk-dcevm/

[PRQ#58500] Deletion Request for qarithmancy-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 28 Apr '24

28 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qarithmancy-git [2]: Upstream EOL for 8 years. [a] Both python-pyqt4 and this package fail to build with Python 3.12. Does not seem needed by AUR users. I think it's safe to delete. [a]: https://github.com/ShadowKyogre/QArithmancy [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/qarithmancy-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 28 Apr '24

28 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for blender-2.83-git [2]: Blender 2.83 EOL since Q2 2022, 2.83 branch doesn't exist anymore, and even original upstream Git repo server has been decommissioned in favor of migrating to GitHub (where, again there is no more 'blender-v2.83-release' branch).

[PRQ#58556] Deletion Request for gitlab-cli
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Apr '24

27 Apr '24

rafaelff [1] filed a deletion request for gitlab-cli [2]: This package is basically the 'glab' package from repository, but based on a binary tarball. It's name would be better of glab-bin, I think. But it's maintainer disowned 3 months ago, and glab looks good in the official repos. Therefore, I suggest removing gitlab-cli.
