net-misc/qtnx & net-misc/nxcl (bug #537774 & #537778)
Both ebuilds fetch the same source code and my first though was we have
the same package under two different names. I might be wrong here as i
didn't looked into it. However since the last change was 03/2008 i'll
consider it dead and i think they should be removed.
Same source tarball, but different ${S} (and different build system) :)
nxcl was intended as a generic library, but only qtnx was built on top
of it
As for qtnx, it is the only open-source client in-tree for "old" NX
servers, and still does its job.
But if we drop packages according to last upstream release, most of the
"old" NX packages should be treecleaned too as they have dead upstreams
since 2011 (best case):
net-misc/neatx (server, 2010)
net-misc/nxcl (client lib, 2008)
net-misc/{nxclient-3*,nxnode,nxserver-freeedition} (proprietary, 2011)
net-misc/nxsadmin (server admin tool, 2008)
net-misc/nxserver-freenx (server, 2009)
net-misc/qtnx (client, 2008)
and
app-admin/eselect-nxserver (not used in x2go)
The active replacement (though not drop-in) is x2go for an open-source
setup, and NX 4 for proprietary (not in tree, bug #488334)
