Last release in 2011. It seems that a porting effort to GTK+3 was started, but stalled in 2015. https://repo.or.cz/gmpc.git/shortlog
not sure what to do about this one. it's still in other distros: https://repology.org/project/gmpc/versions
Note that Debian are (necessary or not) applying a raft of patches: https://salsa.debian.org/mpd-team/gmpc/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/patches/series We're not in a hurry yet.
For completeness, list of revdeps (plugins): https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/genrdeps/rindex/media-sound/gmpc One existing issue bug 740156.

Though the URL quoted initially has not published any releases, there is a fork being admittedly "*UNMAINTAINED*" but a) having seen commits and b) working for me (as is the currently packaged version by Gentoo); it can be found at https://github.com/DaveDavenport/gmpc/ and https://github.com/DaveDavenport/libmpd/ based on GTK+-3. I'm still using this software and like it, but lack the time to maintain it (and incenctive to work with GTK+-3). Would getting in contact with Dave and maybe him publishing a release be enough to keep the package in Gentoo? I could try to make an ebuild (configure && make && make install works, though -jN has issues).
