by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Mar '24

18 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-pillow-git [2]: Seeing that this has been abandoned for 3+ years now, and no comments were made after 2020, I recommend deletion.

The AUR package is broken since 1+ year, but no one noticed. 1 vote/0 comments. Therefore it seems safe to delete.

[PRQ#49581] Deletion Request for python-urwidtrees-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-urwidtrees-git [2]: Broken, abandoned VCS package from 2017. Also, upstream not maintained since 2020. Repo carries the latest stable release. I recommend deletion, chiefly because there is no evidence that anyone uses this off of AUR, and also because the master branch code is the same as the latest release code, so repo's package has the same version as this could offer.

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for archiso-encrypted [2]: Unmaintained addon/mod for archiso from Feb 2022. [a] Wrongly configured quasi-VCS package based on the zip archive of the main branch, with md5sums=('SKIP'). Wrongly declares that it provides 'archiso', despite it also depending on 'archiso'. Wrongly uses mkdir and cp inside package(); does not correctly set file and dir ownership and permissions. 2 votes, 0 comments. I don't think this is used by or useful for users.

[PRQ#49347] Deletion Request for libpcl
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 18 Mar '24

18 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libpcl [2]: This EOL library was last released in 2010. Current source and upstream URL leads to 404 not found error. Not useful to keep this package: the only functioning and actively maintained packages that could utilize it are AUR/ocserv and ocserv- git, but actually ocserv upstream tree contains the project's own maintenance fork of pcl, which at this point should be the preferred version of the pcl library when building ocserv. (That pcl code was last updated 4 months ago as of this writing, as opposed to 13 years ago for the original libpcl.) I've submitted a comment on each packages' AUR page to inform maintainer and the community about this situation, and the recommended resolution, to remove depends=libpcl from those PKGBUILDs.
