by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for velocity-xbox360-git [2]: Unusable package, fails to build, just like its deprecated botan1.10 dependency. Also, upstream not maintained since 2014. [a] Not beneficial to keep this PKGBUILD on AUR. [a]: https://github.com/hetelek/Velocity [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/velocity-xbox360-git/

[PRQ#50759] Deletion Request for txm-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for txm-bin [2]: Unused, broken niche academic Java package in French from 2020. Missing a dependency, but no one seems to have noticed it. 1 vote, 0 comments. So overall it seems safe to delete for lack of interest. (Latest version is easy to install from upstream's website.)

[PRQ#50348] Deletion Request for xlite-bin
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xlite-bin [2]: Broken proprietary binary VoIP telephony app from 2005. Upstream website gone. Dependency lib32-pangox-compat has a source config problem that can prevent building it, but no one mentioned it. After manually fixing every such issue, package is created fine, but the GUI application shows too big text in a small, pixel image based main UI, and the audio setup wizard does not see any of my input (microphone) or output (speaker) devices despite having every lib32 library installed for alsa and pulseaudio. Seems not needed by anyone anymore, and also not usable. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/xlite-bin/

[PRQ#50349] Deletion Request for wink
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for wink [2]: Broken proprietary foreign binary from 2005, doesn't work. Not useful to keep on AUR. There are functioning alternatives for the same use case. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wink/

[PRQ#50287] Deletion Request for qt5ct-svn
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qt5ct-svn [2]: Unused, broken VCS package from 2018. I recommend deletion, as this third-party Qt5-only utility's upstream is in minimal maintenance mode, with only a few minor translation and dependency/buildconfig bumps added occasionally. The project quickly creates a new point release after those adjustments. Therefore a working VCS package would only create a duplicate of repo's qt5ct almost all of the time.

[PRQ#50819] Deletion Request for python-atomiclong
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-atomiclong [2]: If the defunct EOL gitfs is deleted (PRQ#50818), this Python2/Python3 library from 2013 can be safely dropped from AUR as well. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-atomiclong/
