Description David 2011-06-08 06:01:24 UTC
http://gtkdiskfree.tuxfamily.org/ is "404 not found"

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2011-06-09 05:52:41 UTC
This looks dead. Maybe time for last rites.
Comment 2 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-02-09 10:58:24 UTC
I agree as there are other tools like baobab for this
Comment 3 Samuel Bauer 2012-02-16 19:21:22 UTC
Is there any issues using gtkdiskfree ?

The software is quite old, but still works well.

Baobab maybe does the same, but requires (a lot of) gnome libraries to work.
Comment 4 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-02-17 07:59:45 UTC
        >=gnome-base/libgtop-2.12
        >=gnome-base/gconf-2:2

I don't think they are "a lot" of "gnome" libs
Comment 5 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-02-17 08:27:14 UTC
But as it still seems to work...

+  17 Feb 2012; Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> gtkdiskfree-1.9.3-r1.ebuild:
+  Fallback to gentoo.org homepage as upstream is dead, install desktop file. Bug
+  #370605 by David and Samuel BAUER.
+

Anyway, this will probably be lastritted again if some problem without a patch appears and nobody is willing to maintain (or proxy-maintain) it :/

Even it isn't an "official" website, gtkdiskfree still availaible there:

Comment 8 Samuel Bauer 2012-04-04 06:48:21 UTC
I updated the code to make it gtk3 compliant

https://gitorious.org/gtkdiskfree/gtkdiskfree/

hope it will help not to be marked for last rites again

Well, as you can see we still have gtk1 and apps depending on it were cleaned few time ago (after years of co-maintaining them). 

If you are willing to proxy maintain gtkdiskfree, I would have no problem on bump it to your updated versions (with gtk3 port and all our current patches merged ;), maybe other distributions are applying some more patches could interest you if you plan to fork gtkdiskfree)
Comment 10 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-04-04 15:20:38 UTC
We continue in bug 410757 then ;)
