Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I just wanted to let you know that I linted all conda-recipes in your PR (recipe) and found it was in an excellent condition.

[mingwandroid]

Do not merge this until the PRs to the other compression libraries have been merged (at which point we need to rebuild this).

[wolfv]

Hey, are we still waiting for other compression libraries?

I'm happy to help here

Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I was trying to look for recipes to lint for you, but it appears we have a merge conflict.
Please try to merge or rebase with the base branch to resolve this conflict.

Please ping the 'conda-forge/core' team (using the @ notation in a comment) if you believe this is a bug.

@conda-forge-admin, please re-render

Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-webservice.

I tried to rerender for you, but it looks like I wasn't able to push to the master branch of AnacondaRecipes/libarchive-feedstock. Did you check the "Allow edits from maintainers" box?

Yeah GitHub doesn't allow branch editing of org fork PRs. As a result the bot can't push the re-render. So someone will need to do re-rendering on the Anaconda side or this needs to be resubmitted as a new PR

Think we can drop all of the Visual Studio 2008 bits as those are not used any more in conda-forge. Might simplify the update process
