So, with the [migration of the AUR to version 4](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#AUR_4), I looked at the 12 AUR packages I had created over the years which I have not looked at in a long, long time.

The list started out with:

-   [chronicle](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chronicle/) - A simple blog compiler written in Perl
-   [perl-leocharre-basename](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-basename/) - Very basic filename string and path operations such as ext and paths
-   [perl-leocharre-cli2](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-cli2/) - Some quick help for writing cli scripts
-   [perl-leocharre-debug](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-debug/) - Debug subroutines
-   [perl-leocharre-dir](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-dir/) - Subroutines for general directory needs
-   [perl-leocharre-strings](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-strings/) - Combines string procedures I frequently use
-   [perl-string-prettify](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-string-prettify/) - Subroutines to cleanup a filename and or garble for human eyes
-   perl-wordpress-api - Management of Wordpress API objects. Inherits WordPress::XMLRPC and all its methods
-   [perl-wordpress-cli](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-wordpress-cli/) - Command line access to Wordpress
-   [perl-wordpress-xmlrpc](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-wordpress-xmlrpc/) - API to Wordpress XML RPC calls
-   [usbmount](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/usbmount/) - Automatically mount and unmount USB mass storage devices
-   [xlhttp](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xlhtml/) - An Excel spreadsheet (.xls) and PowerPoint (.ppt) to HTML converter

In the end, I only kept *xlhttp* as I do not use the others anymore.  Surprisingly enough, only one of the packages (*chronicle*) was out of date. I disowned all the others, so if you want, you can pick them up.

***Edit 2020-04-07**: Seems that no one picked up _perl-wordpress-api_ as the link to it no longer works*
