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

10 Mar '24

[PRQ#49503] Deletion Request for libreport-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for libreport-git [2]: Broken, abandoned, unused Python2 based VCS package from 2018, with wrong, random pkgver(). Not useful to keep. AUR/libreport is much newer and is in a working state. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/libreport-git/

[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#52316] Deletion Request for qalculate-gtk-git
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for qalculate-gtk-git [2]: Unbuildable since 3 years ago. I don't think it's useful to keep this package. Repo carries the latest stable version. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/qalculate-gtk-git/

[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/

[PRQ#49417] Deletion Request for udev-notify
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

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.
