In some cases the md5sum does not match, so you don't even know if it is the same source. And if something is made for a 5 year old version of linux, I wonder if it still works and is doing the same thing, or that the function maybe is not needed anymore? Suggestion: Kick out the obsolete packages, particularly those that have not seen any upstreams activity for years. They can be moved to AUR and community for those few who still want them. Karolina
