Task Description
Description:
Tuxcards is seemingly published under some GPL license, on the splash screen I did not see which one.
The splash screen claims it is Donationware, which is bringing confusion.
Picture: https://gnu.support/images/issues/2018-06-17-21:35:41.png
Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donationware
So either the splash screen shall be removed, as it is donationware, or author contacted, or package removed as it is unclear if it is free software or donationware. Free software can be sold, and if it is sold, then such software shall not ask for donations again in my opinion.

Packages | Any | Feature Request | Very Low | Low | [vobsub2srt] please add package | Unconfirmed | |
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.

Packages | Any | Implementation Request | Very Low | Low | [sayonara] add package | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
Hello,
I stumbled upon this music player recently, it is very promising and fully free (GPL3)
“Sayonara is a small, clear and fast audio player for Linux written in C++, supported by the Qt framework. It uses GStreamer as audio backend. Sayonara is open source and uses the GPLv3 license. One of Sayonara’s goals is intuitive and easy usablility. Currently, it is only available for Linux and BSD.
Although Sayonara can be considered as a lightweight player, it holds a lot of features in order to organize even big music collections.”
Latest version is 1.1.1 and it is very stable on my hyperbola system. I think it would be a great addition to Hyperbola repo.

A PKGBUILD is available here :
