[aur-general] Request to remove kdeplasma-atheist-quote
Hello, First and foremost, sorry if this isn't the right place or way to do this, as I've never done it before, but I recall someone suggesting getting it done this way. I would like to have kdeplasma-atheist-quote removed from AUR, which I had submitted a while ago under the false impression that the package worked. It "worked" on my computer as well as a friend's because we had manually installed and uninstalled it as non-root users once before and it likely kept in cache or something of the sort despite the uninstall. It "works" there, but it doesn't work on new machines (btw I wasn't aware he'd had the plasmoid installed once before I asked him to test the package). I never figured out how to fix it because it's not made the same way pretty much every other plasmoid is [it's lose javascript files or some such, no cmake stuff will do afaik], and it's been orphaned n broken for a LONG time, so it should be removed.

[aur-general] Sonata-svn package should be removed.
The package sonata-svn at http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6963 is obsoleted by sonata-git and should be removed. The maintainer on its aur page said he left it to aid in the transition to the correct package and it's been long enough to remove it.
[aur-general] Spux-svn should be removed
The Spux (ventrilo client) project is dead and another project, Mangler (also on aur already), has taken its place. The pkgbuild for spux-svn naturally has been long since dead, and should be removed.
[aur-general] Obsoleted packages removal request.
The following package is obsolete and I believe should be removed: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27279 grub2-gfxmenu-overlay The following packages are a little less clear, but in the end I believe should also be removed, as they have a few problems: They rely on grub2-gfxmenu, which is obsolete. Grub2 was supposed to take gfxmenu patches upstream a while ago. I don't know if it did + whether or not these still work after tweaking the pkgbuilds accordingly, as I have since switched back to the old grub. It seems after a very long time, nobody has come forth to say one way or another on any of the pages. It wouldn't much matter anyway, however, unless someone has backups of the theme files somewhere to upload to a different host of their own. The urls all of the theme packages try to download from are now broken and have been for quite some time, as they were kept by a friend of mine a while ago who had no further reason to keep up his hosting services. None of them have a maintainer except the last one, but for the above reasons, it doesn't much matter as far as I can see. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27281 grub2-theme-aftermathbluehttp://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27282 grub2-theme-archspherehttp://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27283 grub2-theme-distroballshttp://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27285 grub2-theme-planeplanthttp://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27286 grub2-theme-simplyblackhttp://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27288 grub2-theme-ubuntuglowhttp://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27284 grub2-theme-elegantarch This package has the same troubles, except for a working url.http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31084 grub2-icons-circlestarts
[aur-general] Obsolete grub2-gfxmenu packages
The following aur packages I made some time ago have been obsolete and the source files non-existent for a very long time and should be removed: grub2-theme-aftermathblue, grub2-theme-archsphere, grub2-theme-distroballs, grub2-theme-elegantarch, grub2-theme-planeplant, grub2-theme-simplyblack, grub2-theme-ubuntuglow, grub2-gfxmenu-overlay, grub2-icons-circlestarts Thanks.
[aur-general] arista: duplicate aur package
The package 'arista' in aur appears to be obsoleted by the package 'arista-transcoder'. The former should probably be removed, as it hasn't been updated/maintained in a very long time. Thanks :)
