Hello

Again some packages that can be deleted, so I assume.


Let's start: (All are orphaned and outdated, or owned by me)

# shoes:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15462
URLs are dead

# shoutcast-search:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25366
Not working since 2010/11. Upstream devel on halt and I don't think 
shoutcast will revert the api.

# silverlight-media-pack:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36181
Sourcelink dead

# sim-im:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=3470
Upstream development ceased since 2008. I tried to update the pkgbuild 
to the latest version but building the package failed.

# simple-scan-devel:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=51891
Devel version that's older than stable.

# sip-py-dev:

# slat:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13678
Doesn't build

# slate:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6945
Out of date. All devel is done via git now, and stable snapshots aren't 
available (Just old ones)

# smarbs:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=26558
Doesn't build, out of date

# snesreader:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30491
Sourcelink dead and most likely deprecated (Cannot find any source on 
the devel-page)

# sonata-disautocenter:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19242
Ood and the patch doesn't work with the latest version. (Tried to adapt 
it.. )

# haskell-xml-enumerator:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=48924

in ghc (newest version)

But he dropped it and he mentioned a better version

# pidgin-disco:

build, ood
