[PRQ#50941] Deletion Request for codelobster
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 09 Mar '24

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for codelobster [2]: I think it's not useful to keep this non-free, proprietary, "30 days free trial" binary IDE on AUR. It is not maintained with adequate competence, therefore it is missing library dependencies resulting in e.g. the application not being able to download any plugins / developer frameworks from the menu. But no one complained, so I surmise that no one actually uses this off of AUR. Besides that, the GUI does not support proper scaling despite being based on Qt5 and me testing it on the Qt5-native KDE Plasma 5 desktop and on a FullHD (1080p) screen, not even a 4K one. Some UI fonts are too small, others too large and don't fit their allocated space. On top of that, the UI has fade-in/fade-out animations which for some reason makes the GUI seem sluggish on my good performing laptop. Nowadays there are many very good free, open source IDE's like vscodium / code, and also IntelliJ's community edition IDE's, as well as other alternatives.

09 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for makemkv-libaacs [2]: Bogus, broken package. But if it did work, it would still not be needed or useful to keep, as it would just replace extra repo's libaacs with a potentially incompatible foreign binary library.
