Task Description
Unlike other mapping software (gnome-maps, emerillon) it does not depend on geoclue/geoclue2 (or on kde packages like marble). The package was added to Arch’s official repos over a year ago. Their PKGBUILD builds fine.

Task Description
When running QtEmu for the first time and running the new machine wizard, the software lists non-free operating systems and refers to GNU/Linux as Linux.
It would be nice to list LibertyBSD in the list of distros in this software in addition to GNU/Linux and GNU/Hurd (which are listed in aqemu).

Task Description
Please restore the hidden setting (which can be enabled via dconf-editor) to disable JavaScript, which was removed last year (see here for details: https://github.com/GNOME/epiphany/blob/master/NEWS ). Please do not remove the browser from the repos, as it renders this website correctly, unlike Mozlla based browsers (see here for more info: https://issues.hyperbola.info/index.php?do=details&task_id=131). The browser also provides other functions currently unavailable in Mozilla browsers, such as accessing LibreCMC router’s non-SSL web interface.

Packages | Any | Feature Request | Very Low | Medium | Remove dependency of packages on pulseaudio/libpulse | Closed | |
Task Description
Similar to systemd, pulseaudio or libpulse is forced upon users as many packages require it such as kodi, gnome-shell (and thus also gdm), ffmpeg, gst-plugins-good, simplescreenrecorder, clementine, empathy, seamonkey (iceape), fluidsynth, mumble and qemu, Most/all of these packages can probably be compiled with pulseaudio or libpulse as an optional dependency instead.

Task Description
slim-themes seems to be considered free according to Parabola - they have an issue with arch branding (slim-themes::::[branding][:package] has “archlinux” theme) which they resolve be creating the package parabola-themes-slim. Perhaps this can be the basis for hyperbola branded themes.

Packages | Any | Feature Request | Very Low | Low | [vobsub2srt] please add package | Closed | |
Task Description
here is the description from the website
https://github.com/ruediger/VobSub2SRT
VobSub2SRT is a simple command line program to convert .idx / .sub subtitles into .srt text subtitles by using OCR. It is based on code from the MPlayer project - a really really great movie player. Some minor parts are copied from ffmpeg/avutil headers. Tesseract is used as OCR software.
vobsub2srt is released under the GPL3+ license. The MPlayer code included is GPL2+ licensed.
The quality of the OCR depends on the text in the subtitles. Currently the code does not use any preprocessing. But I’m currently looking into adding filters and scaling options to improve the OCR. You can correct mistakes in the .srt files with a text editor or a special subtitle editor.
Attached is a working PKGBUILD for the latest stable version.

Task Description
Old clients (like the one packages by Hyperbola) no longer work due to changes in Electrum:
https://github.com/kyuupichan/electrumx/pull/760
The fix is to use a newer version.

Packages | Any | Bug Report | High | Critical | [electrum] updated package still does not work | Closed | |
Task Description
Here is the terminal output:
$ electrum Error: No module named ‘aiorpcx’. Try ‘sudo python3 -m pip install <module-name>
I think a newer python version (e.g. 3.7) might be needed in order to get it to work as well as even after installing missing modules via pip locally the package does not run.
