Description spiralvoice 2006-06-28 10:26:07 UTC

This app has not been updated for over two years now, it
seems still to work but the fork net-p2p/sancho-bin is
much more up-to-date and follows protocol updates of
net-p2p/mldonkey.
I think the g2gui ebuild, if Gentoo policy allows, should
be removed from portage and users should use Sancho instead.

Maybe the description of net-p2p/sancho-bin should be
updated like this:
"a powerful frontend for mldonkey and successor of g2gui"

# Bug 138375
# net-p2p/g2gui: Upstream dead and doesn't work with new mldonkey
# versions. Use net-p2p/sancho-bin or the gui included in mldonkey.
# net-p2p/bittorrent-stats: Doesn't work anymore and is an ancient
# version. Use bittorrent.
net-p2p/g2gui
