1st-ly I'd like to apologize to the OP, the following comments are NOT
directed just at you but more as an open mail to community.
There seems to be a recent trend to request deletion of (to use OP
phrasing) orphans, out-of-date and not updated for over a year.
It seems this makes them PERFECT candidates for adoption and/or
abandonment-adoption as opposed to deletion. The few I viewed in the
list all seemed to have source available.
Deletion criteria include (but not limited to) no sources and
duplicates
of AUR/community or other repo packages.
Just my bitchin' to put in my 2 cents
Agreed. I also feel this way towards [community]. If a project has
been ended and the source is still available, then I see no reason
to remove it from [community].
It's just one of those things that I never understood.
One additional criteria - if it doesn't build anymore (for ended
projects it happens after a while).
Oh, I thought that was a given. ;-)
