Dear DD's,

some time ago I wrote an email to you [1] about the library
libwmaker0-dev. I have no reply.

As I said, the wmaker upstream removed the contents of the library
libwmaker0-dev and now libwmaker0-dev is unmaintained and has been
removed from Debian. This library is needed to build wterm/fsviewer.

This library now is not part of wmaker, then should be maintained
separately. I have no time to maintain it. If you want to maintain the
library, please, download the package contents from

http://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git/commit/67a8a826703507bebad2d2c7eb705b436c501d58

But remember that the library *is now upstream unmaintained* and you
will be the upstream.

On the other hand, you can remove the libwmaker0-dev stuff from your
application.

wterm/fsviewer are old applications, are upstream unmaintained and the
upstream seems to be MIA [1]. Therefore, these packages could be removed
from debian.

Please, update these bugs with your comments.

Thanks a lot,

Best Regards,
kix

Hi Guido, Francois, Jeff,

I am trying to update the wmaker/debian folder with the new wmaker-crm
0.94. Your applications (fsviewer and wterm) needs WMaker.h and other
libraries included in the libwmaker0-dev package. These files were
removed from the git source, therefore the package libwmaker0-dev is
empty and should be removed. The problem is that your applications needs
the contents of this package to build.

On the other hand, the upstream version seems to be not updated for a
long time. You will try to update the applications? update the packages?
remove the packages from the future debian distro versions? What do you
think about this?

Thanks a lot

Best Regards,

kix.
