by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Mar '24

02 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for khtml-git [2]: Discontinued. Upstream has deleted the master branch content. [a] KDE Plasma KF6 does not continue carrying this library.

[PRQ#54125] Deletion Request for x264_152
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Mar '24

02 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for x264_152 [2]: This legacy version of repo's x264 is no longer needed by anything. It is also unbuildable. Safe to delete. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/x264_152/

[PRQ#54124] Deletion Request for ffdiaporama
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Mar '24

02 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ffdiaporama [2]: EOL software from 2014 [a], has been reported by users as failing to build in comments from 2023-08, and it still fails to build due to the same reason as of now. Also its legacy dependency, ffmpeg21 has been broken, unbuildable since roughly the same point in time, and now it is buildable but not able to find its own libdeps, therefore it cannot be run. Not useful to keep this package in my opinion; there are working alternatives for the same use case (creation of a video from a slideshow of photos).

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Mar '24

02 Mar '24

LaszloGombos [1] filed an orphan request for dracut-git [2]: I work on upstream Dracut and happy to take over the maintenance for this package. Tried to email diabonas(a)archlinux.org but the email bounced. There are some changes that needs to happen to dracut-git - some of which I already submitted and got merged to dracut (non-git) package. Thanks !

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Mar '24

[PRQ#53666] Orphan Request for pkgbase
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 02 Mar '24

02 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed an orphan request for pkgbase [2]: This is wrongly submitted, and should be deleted: see PRQ#52111. No packages should have pkgbase='pkgbase', and this package also has an unrelated pkgname='yuma123-git'. There is also an AURweb bug whereby if there is an AUR package with pkgbase='pkgbase', every nonexistent pkgbase page will link to the existing package with pkgbase='pkgbase'. See for example the AUR web page for the recently deleted 'wakeonlan': https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/wakeonlan Archive as of today: https://web.archive.org/web/20240207092759/https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbas… [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/pkgbase/
