Yay orphaned packages
(lemmy.world)
The past few times I’ve run yay I’ve got these warnings about packages that are orphaned/not in the AUR. Based on the names I’m assuming these are leftover from the upgrade from kde plasma 5 to 6, are these safe to remove now? And secondly how would I find orphaned packages like that if I wasn’t using yay since I never installed these from the AUR?
I never knowingly installed these, the only packages I’ve intentionally installed from the AUR are heroic games launcher and 7-zip. And the only kde programs I’ve manually installed is the plasma-meta package, kde connect and ksnip. I think they were previously part of the plasma-meta package and have now been removed or replaced with the plasma 6 versions
That’s probably it. Package doesn’t exist anymore, but is available on AUR since 2024/03/16

This is the case. You shouldn't have issues if you follow the instructions another comment had to replace the hotkey until
I just went for it and assumed the meta package was updated right and deleted the deprecated packages and had no issues
