There have to be someone updating or patching such a package but in fact, there haven't been one, for long, and we donno even if anyone is still using it, that's the enough reason for at least me to delete it. If anyone would pick it up, they could still add it back and it's not hard, thanks to the simplicity of pacman. -- Felix Yan Twitter: @felixonmars Wiki: http://felixc.at signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I just noticed the librest-git repository has been moved to github. Maybe we shouldn't be so trigger-happy with the delete button. Being orphaned or having a change in the download url is not enough reason to delete a package. Packages that don't build may need to be updated or patched. -Andreas On Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 7:08 AM, Felix Yan wrote: > On 11/29/2012 07:56 PM, Jekyll Wu wrote: >> All packages below are orphaned. >> >> >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/billreminder-svn/svn repo gone >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/taglib-gio/ tarball gone, >> upstream seems dead >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnet1tarball gone >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gromit fail to build >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gssdp-devel tarball gone >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gupnp-ui tarball gnoe >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/online-desktop fail to build >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jana-git fail to build >> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/librest-git git repo gone >> >> >> Regards >> Jekyll > All removed, thanks. > > -- > Felix Yan > Twitter: @felixonmars > Wiki: http://felixc.at >
