Currently packaged version was released in 2007, it seems no one else is left packaging this. Is there any other package that can serve its purpose instead?

This is a perfectly working software with no replacement with comparable usability available. It does not matter when the code was released if it works fine. However, pygtk dependency is optional, so *when* it will come to pygtk removal from the tree, USE=gtk may be dropped from the package.

It matters very much for a guesstimate of what we can expect in terms of porting into the future.

Thanks for commenting.
We will be removing it along with py2 anyway.
