[PRQ#57621] Deletion Request for gtk3-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 11 Mar '24

11 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for gtk3-git [2]: Not much maintained, badly packaged, and upstream is in minimal maintenance mode. A new minor point release is published every time there is a bugfix, and Arch devs maintain the stable build in [extra] repo. Therefore I suggest to delete this superfluous package.

[PRQ#51406] Merge Request for gnucash-docs-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge gnucash-docs-git [2] into gnucash-git [3]: Not useful to keep the broken pkgbase=gnucash-docs-git. It was last changed in 2015, and has been failing to build since at least 2020 due to makedepends=rarian's reported FTBFS that year, which persists to this day. But no one noticed. gnucash-docs-git has only 2 votes, and 1 comment from maintainer made in 2017. Extra repo has the latest stable gnucash and gnucash-docs. If the rolling 'git' docs is needed, it is best to enable it in the main gnucash-git's PKGBUILD. With this merge, it will become possible in the latter to create a split package with the same 'gnucash-docs- git' name.

[PRQ#49436] Deletion Request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-base
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-gstreamer0.10-base [2]: Abandoned, not actually used gstreamer0.10 lib32 library pkg from 2020. It is unbuildable, just like its also several-years-unmaintained native-build counterpart (gstreamer0.10-base). AUR/crossover currently defines this as an optdepend, but its current version can no longer use this. I plan to submit a comment on the latter's AUR page with a suggested PKGBUILD diff, because the current package has many other obsolete (opt)depends as of now, due to upstream changes. Safe to delete this defunct library. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/lib32-gstreamer0.10-base/

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for udev-notify [2]: VCS package in disguise from 2022. @FabioLolix has pointed this out last year and suggested changes to rectify it, but maintainer just ignored the feedback. Upstream not developed since 2016. [a] Safe to delete; seems no one is using this.

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-orange-canvas-core- git [2]: Abandoned, broken VCS package from 2021. With a pkgver() that does not produce commit/revision specific, monotonically increasing version string, and which also can potentially use a different tag depending on user's global git config (because it just lists all cloned tags and picks the newest, but doesn't use git describe, so it might pick a tag that is only on a different branch but not on master branch). Not useful to keep. Better to delete. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-orange-canvas-core-git/

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge custom-install-git [2] into custom-install [3]: Upstream is abandoned since 2 years ago, and the '-git' package is unbuildable due to missing dependency. The stable package is only 8 commits behind the default branch, and from those, only 1 is meaningful (a minor fix, which if needed, can be added as a patch). Most importantly, AUR/custom-install can be built and run, so it's better to keep only that one.
