The proguard PKGBUILD doesn't provide any source code for proguard,
and the Aur package it is based on doesn't either.
This is an issue for GPLv2 compliance as well as a practical one:
we cannot patch the software if we need to.
As for the packages that depend on proguard, the android-sdk
package depends on it.
However, as far as I know the android-sdk package is a work in
progress that didn't progress much since 2018. According to the
commit that added it in pcr-testing:
commit d424f0813c7bee07cdea2b6863540e1b84abfb0d
addpkg: pcr-testing/android-sdk-meta
Inspired from https://blog.replicant.us/2017/04/there-wont-be-a-replicant-6-0-sdk-because-there-is-already-something-better/
I used the Debian sources since they are fully-free,
but I still need to add the API level 23 to build an
app, and then move this to [pcr]
So if someone really wants proguard and/or the android-sdk in
Parabola, the solution is to make sure that proguard is built
from source somehow.
In #parabola in liberachat, bill-auger also agreed with me to
the removal of proguard until a way to build it from source
is found.
