MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin- gtk2 [2]: Unneeded EOL legacy version from 2017 of repo's xfce4-whiskermenu- plugin. FTBFS (fails to build from source).

[PRQ#49875] Deletion Request for lib32-freeimage
by notify＠aur.archlinux.org 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for lib32-freeimage [2]: This library never seems to have had any consuming bin32/lib32 package to rely on it since 2014. Therefore I recommend deletion. It also does not follow Arch package guidelines like extra/freeimage does in relying on shared libraries; instead, it builds and bundles other libraries inside a static libfreeimageplus.a, like the old version of the following: libraw, openexr, libjpeg, libpng, libtiff4, zlib, openjpeg, libwebp, libjxr. Then it goes on to discard the bundled libfreeimageplus.a file. It seems safe to drop from AUR. No dependents, and last user comment is from 2016.
