Time to clean up old cruft again. Please head to
https://archlinux.org/devel/reports/unneeded-orphans/ and adopt packages you
want to keep in the repos. For reference, a current list of packages is
attached (but this may vary if packages are adopted/disowned). If you adopt a
package from the list, make sure to check its dependencies and also adopt them
in case they are orphan.
This is also a good time to check your out-of-date packages and disown the ones
you no longer have interest in/time to maintain, so they can find a maintainer
in the official repos or otherwise in AUR. Keeping packages out of date and/or
with unfixed issues for months/years is not ideal and can be detrimental to the
overall quality of our distro in the long run.
I will start dropping packages to AUR in ~ 10 days.
I also have some stuff I no longer really use:
* tarsnap
* nginx-prometheus-exporter
* intel-gpu-tools (won't drop to AUR as it is generally useful)
