Details

Description: EOL, incompatible bindings to current libraw.

History:
- Last release: v0.6.0 (Jul 9, 2017), for libraw v0.17/v0.18 support. [1]
(Then patched for libraw v0.19 support.)
- Project status: unmaintained (Nov 26, 2018) [2]
- Last upstream commit: Oct 21, 2019. [3]
- master branch reported being broken even with libraw v0.19.5 on Oct 4, 2020. [4]
- Project GitHub repo is archived since Oct 4, 2020.

Arch related history:
- extra/rapid-photo-downloader 0.9.27 (Dec 13, 2021) removed support
due to this being broken. [5][6]

Benefit of removal:
- This checkdepends on python-mock backport module, which is intended to be dropped:
https://archlinux.org/todo/drop-python-mock-checkdepends/

Impact of removal on Arch users: none.
Impact of removal on AUR users: none.

Arch repo reverse dependencies: none.

AUR repo reverse dependencies: 1:
- rapid-photo-downloader-bzr [7]
Does not actually need this;
also broken for other reasons;
code migrated to GitHub so the '-bzr' package is defunct anyway.

Additional info:
* package version(s):
- extra/any/python-rawkit 0.6.0-12
- extra/x86_64/libraw 0.21.1-2, contains 'libraw.so.23'
