[PRQ#57358] Deletion Request for garfield-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 15 Apr '24

15 Apr '24

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for garfield-git [2]: Abandoned package by its maintainer/developer. Upstream has only 5 commits on the same day of the AUR submission (2019-06-16). This is a simple program that outputs a Garfield quote [0] ("I hate Mondays Jon" or some variation of it). The PKGBUILD does not follow the guidelines: uses sudo to install and there is no pkgver function (pointed by @kleintux on December 2022). No other comments nor reverse depends. Finally, the program does not even compile, so it's not worth to fix it.

[PRQ#55073] Deletion Request for spice-xpi
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 15 Apr '24

15 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for spice-xpi [2]: Upstream is EOL since 2015. [a] Website is down (no server). [b] Package build is currently broken due to minor issue relating to git submodule handling. But it is useless to fix and keep: no working and available Firefox (-based) browsers support third party XPCOM (xulrunner) binary plugins like this one. Mozilla has dropped support for those in Firefox v57, released in 2017. [c] Installing this package has no effect whatsoever on the current Firefox.

[PRQ#54230] Deletion Request for python-soappy
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 15 Apr '24

15 Apr '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-soappy [2]: Unneeded dead-on-arrival EOL Python2 library from 2014. [a] Not compatible with its python2-wstools 0.4.10 dependency (released in 2020). [b] The build does not run any tests, that's why the incompatibility does not surface during package creation. Not useful to keep on AUR. [a]: https://pypi.org/project/SOAPpy [b]: https://pastebin.com/HrGPUipx [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/python-soappy/
