[PRQ#58970] Deletion Request for manpages-es-extra

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org

a821 [1] filed a deletion request for manpages-es-extra [2]: The package has been flagged for two years and has been recently orphaned (PRQ#58929). There are still unresolved issues regarding conflicting man pages with extra/man-pages-es (some work is needed to remove the duplicated man pages). Also, this package has been dropped from Debian repos [0] in 2021 and also from Ubuntu (focal 20.04 was the last version to carry it). Finally, the translations are unmaintained, outdated and inaccurate (at the very least, the few ones I checked); they have been essentially unchanged since 2004 (which you can see if you clone the upstream repo [1]). This is even acknowledged in some of the man pages themselves. All in all, I think this can be deleted.

[PRQ#53359] Deletion Request for python2-pickleshare

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python2-pickleshare [2]: This has already been deleted in response to PRQ#48172 (2023-09-29) [a]. Now it got recreated dead-on-arrival, without declaring a needed dependency. The submitter, Pellegrino Prevete (dual aliases on AUR: @tallero, @truocolo) was MIA for almost the entire year of 2023, but when he's back, he typically pushes broken packages and broken updates. As reverse dependency ipython2 has been dead on AUR since 2021, and got deleted already once, it does not make sense to keep this package. ipython2 has been recreated DOA in 2023-07 and no user commented on it all throughout the year. As per AUR submission guidelines, packages kept here should be in demand by more than a few users. These builds clearly don't hit that particular bar.

Okay, fair reason. I will not release such a script again.

[PRQ#43423] Deletion Request for cntk-cuda

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for cntk-cuda [2]: Discontinued Microsoft AI toolkit. Last release was in April 2019. [a] Package broken since Oct 2019, because it hardcodes Python 3.7 site- packages path, and Arch shipped Python 3.8 then. Last comment apart from mine was made in 2021 about the same problem. Not useful to keep this package. Active development hasn't continued after 2019: only 5 minor commits in 2020, then one commit in 2022 by a Microsoft bot. [b] Current owner @joaquinito2051 just adopted 100+ packages throughout the last 1.5-2 years, but he never touched almost any of them, or maybe made one or two very trivial changes somewhere. He has never responded to any of my comments ever. Safe to delete this unneeded and defunct package.

[PRQ#46920] Deletion Request for webbrowser-git

by notify＠aur.archlinux.org

MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for webbrowser-git [2]: This package continues to violate packaging standards mentioned in comments since 2021. But it is also not useful: it's a not much developed, de-branded fork from 2019—2020 of the Pale Moon browser. The fork's active development happened in 2020 and 2021, with only 2 minor commits roughly a year ago, in 2022. [a] Its Pale Moon originating GUI platform and rendering engine, Goanna/UXP was updated from upstream in 2020 and then not much developed further. [b] There is literally zero benefit to users to use this: outdated, insecure, deprecated in its web standards support, and inferior in every way to Pale Moon and mainstream browsers - among which there are lots of fortified privacy flavors and configurations.

Re: [PRQ#49711] Deletion Request for kdeplasma-applets-gmailfeed-git

by Marcell Meszaros

+1 for the deletion, for the following reasons: - Though actually this is for the newer applet, updated upstream in June 2022, the package itself has been broken since 2022-03, and no one cared. (The 'Ultimate' applet was last updated in 2019.) - The stable package, kdeplasma-applets-gmailfeed, is almost at the last commit version (only missing the Dutch translation added after release, which can be easily put into the stable package). - Thirdly, this pkgname does not follow the Arch guidelines for KDE packages.
