Description Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2010-07-07 21:13:06 UTC
While digging in bug #318137, I found that gdl2 (dep for gsweb) does not work itself with current stable gnustep base.

Last release is old, SVN upstream is still lively but it does not compile either, and homepage still says about it "GDL2 is meant for developers who can help test and contribute to the current code or are willing to test the interface. It is not ready for general purpose production code"

So unless someone makes 0.12.0 compile (or even a SVN snapshot if patch becomes too big), this one will be removed from portage in one month

Going away with it (last svn activity in 2005, nothing depending on them):
* gnustep-libs/steptalk
* gnustep-apps/stshell
