Description Joonas Niilola gentoo-dev 2021-01-07 17:14:12 UTC
# Eterm's development stopped 2014 and upstream brought to life 
# its successor, terminology. Eterm is unmaintained in Gentoo with 
# multiple bugs open for a long time. Switch to any available 
# alternative, https://packages.gentoo.org/categories/x11-terms

Thanks for filing a bug for these by the way. I think it’s useful to ensure there’s a bug for removal in case somebody wants to step up (not really applicable here, but you get me).

# For Esetroot replacement, use feh from media-gfx/feh or wmsetbg
# from x11-wm/windowmaker.

Anyone wishing to save this package, please become the maintainer and fix open bugs.
