Package: wkhtmltopdf
Version: 0.12.6-2
Severity: normal

Hi!

While checking for packages on my system still depending on Qt5, I
noticed this package. Checking whether it had Qt6 support, I stumbled
over the upstream repo which is currently archived, and as such will
receive no further development:

  https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf

And then noticed the following page explaining the current upstream
status:

  https://wkhtmltopdf.org/status.html

So I think it would be wise to start preparing for the eventual removal
of this package from the archive, and sort out reverse dependencies
and similar.

Perhaps a good start would be to update the package Description to
mention the current upstream status so that people do not start
relying on it when its future seems doomed. And ideally pointing to
alternatives.

Thanks,
Guillem
