Maybe should be treecleaned as it's dead for 4 ages and looks like there is no port to new lcms I've spent some time, and finally tracked down what's going on with f-spot. I still don't completely understand the reasoning, but development has moved from gnome git to github and is now under mono/f-spot. Development is still not extremely active, but they have converted to lcms2, and done some of the other cleanups. I've successfully compiled from the new git master, but am still working through runtime errors. I don't know if they can have a new release in less than another few months - would it be better to defer the treecleaning until a new release, or just remove this one, and then re-add the next version? I think the best option is to keep killing this (as the reasons are still there) and, if at some time the new f-spot is really usable, I guess won't be problems to include it again dropped |
