Source: objcryst-fox
Version: 1.9.6.0-2.1
Severity: normal

I think it's time to remove the objcryst-fox package:

* appears to be unmaintained in Debian:
  - 3 open bugs, none with any maintainer response
  - last maintainer upload was over 8 years ago
  - several newer unpackaged upstream releases (it's a bit unclear
    exactly what's most recent, but 2017.2 according to:
    https://sourceforge.net/p/objcryst/git/ci/master/tree/ChangeLog.txt )
  - upstream says the currently packaged version doesn't work well with
    wxwidgets3.0 - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=781717#10
    - and apparently segfaults as a result.
* last upload (NMU by me for the previous wxwidgets3.0 transition) was
  over 5 years ago
* hasn't been in testing due to RC bugs since early 2017 due to a FTBFS
  bug which has had a patch to fix it attached for nearly 2 years
* extremely low popcon - inst:5 vote:0
* has no reverse dependencies (according to dak rm)

If there are no objections within two weeks, I'll turn this into an RM
bug.

Cheers,
    Olly
