18 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed an orphan request for python-mechanicalsoup [2]: Maintainer @arnottcr is inactive on AUR since 2022-08-18, and hasn't addressed several packaging issues since 2021. It would be a good option if current co-maintainer @robertfoster got promoted to main owner, as it was already him who updated the package the last time. (Also only the main maintainer can decide if they want or not to add additional co-maintainers. As this package enjoys some amount of popularity and has received feedback from a bunch of users, it is not impossible for other volunteers to offer such help.)

18 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-fuse3 [2]: Nothing depends on this library package, and nothing on AUR seems to have ever had. fuse3 was first released in 2016, so it's about 10-15 years too new for any bin32/lib32-only packages to depends on it.
