Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2016-06-29 09:36:39 UTC 
istanbul is not developed by gnome guys for years, and it is even more useless now that gnome-shell has its own capabilities for recording the desktop

Also, this relies in obsolete gst-0.10 and, hence, it would be interesting to drop one of its consumers also :/

Thanks

+1, it's dropped from debian too.
Comment 2 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-06-30 22:03:14 UTC
