Thanks :) I also have disowned some packages - that is for rerasond of upstream EOL: `gtuber` and for the reason that I don't use anymore and don't have interest in: `gedit`, `enter-tex`, `libgedit-tepl`, `gedit-plugins`, `libgedit- gtksourceview`, `libgedit-gfls`, `libgedit-amtk` A word on gedit. It is probably still very popular[1]. It's not the in gnome core anymore and since then was moved to some own infrastructure and partly moved back to GNOME/World, with parts/features removed or restructured and some parts renamed (enter-tex, was gnome-latex). So this requires at least a bit more attention. It's not a monster, but because I don't use it I often miss small, sometimes big things. So feel free to take over. The only dependency on this whole set seems to be supercollider, with an optional dependency on gedit itself. -- --- Sincerely, fabiscafe ☕️ - Fabian Bornschein [1] https://pkgstats.archlinux.de/fun/Editors/history
