Package: libmatchbox1 Severity: wishlist Continuing the removal of GPE from Debian. Upstream has been dead for some time. The environment itself is aimed at a dead platform (iPAQ) and is unsuitable for use on current devices like phones or tablets without widescale modification. I've no interest in maintaining it any longer but rather than simply orphan ~60 packages, I've decided to seek removal on the basis that the orphaned environment would be unmaintainable in the long term. There is zero prospect of GPE ever being ported to GTK3.
GPE based packages have mostly been removed from Debian already, the remaining ones include libxsettings-client upon which libmatchbox1 depends. Is it possible for matchbox to migrate away from libxsettings support? Is there someone who cares about matchbox enough to take over maintenance of libxsettings and libxsettings-client? The same problem affects matchbox-window-manager, so I'll clone this to that package to retain a link. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
