Details

Description: All of the packages kdeutils-*-4.7.4 and kdeaccessibility-*-4.7.4 were each contained in a single pkgbase, kdeutils/ and kdeaccessiblity/ in /var/abs/extra/. When these were split into separate pkgbuilds for kde 4.8.0 the obsolete directories were left stranded. They should have been automatically deleted.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
abs-2.4.3 (and earlier?) and internal archlinux tools which maintain the rsync repository for the abs tree.
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
abs
cd /var/abs/extra
cd kdeutils (it is present and contains PKGBUILD for obsolete version)
cd /var/abs/extra
cd kdeaccessibility (it is present and contains PKGBUILD for obsolete version)

or

pbget --abs kdeutils # fetchs an obsolete pkgbuild
pbget --abs kdeaccessibility # fetches an obsolete pkgbuild
This task depends upon

Nothing to do with ABS... those packages were never removed from SVN.
