Maybe we should simply treeclean it then I'm still using this myself. I agree that we should not expect much, if anything, from upstream. I'll have a look later to see if this is easy to port or if other distros have already done the work. In debian removal bug they suggested keepass as an alternative: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=790601 Maybe it can be useful :/ in Arch they are applying this patch to, at least, drop dev-python/libgnome-python dep, that looks to be unneeded: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/gnome-python.patch?h=revelation For the rest, it seems there is no solution yet The bug has been referenced in the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=74e583808c7ca2affd74d80929d4e8805f8a5f12 commit 74e583808c7ca2affd74d80929d4e8805f8a5f12 Author: Hans de Graaff <graaff@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2019-04-28 18:34:44 +0000 Commit: Hans de Graaff <graaff@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2019-04-28 18:35:00 +0000 x11-misc/revelation: drop dep on libgnome-python This library is not actually used in the source so drop it from configure and dependencies.
