Bug 339771 – Removal of app-text/gnome-spell

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mart Raudsepp 2010-10-05 01:39:38 UTC]

It doesn't look like anything in-tree uses app-text/gnome-spell anymore. So lets consider last riting and punting. One team double-check is enough for me to proceed.

I believe it was primarily used by evolution-2.22 and older before, but now the functionality is in gtkhtml through enchant.

I agree with dropping it

In debian there's only an obscure package that rdepends on it, and nothing shows up in rindex and dindex on tinderbox. I agree with removal.

Done.
