by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for plasma-applet-netspeed- widget [2]: As per ArchWiki's KDE package guidelines [a], their names have to refer to the Plasma or KDE component major version (5 or 6). Also the category-related word typically needs to be in the plural (i.e. 'applets', not 'applet'). Proper name for this current package: plasma6-applets-netspeed-widget. Please kindly resubmit with that name.

[PRQ#57996] Orphan Request for octopi
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

xiota [1] filed an orphan request for octopi [2]: Package saves to non-unique filename "octopi", lacking both version and extension. This is known to cause problems when rebuilding new versions of packages or when `SRCDEST` is set. Arch Wiki describes the problem and provides a solution [a]. Maintainer was notified in comments. Multiple solutions were provided by multiple users. However, maintainer has refused to correct the defect. If maintainer is unwilling or unable to fix this package, it should be orphaned so someone else may do so.
