Description Michael Mair-Keimberger (iamnr3) 2024-03-09 16:49:41 UTC

Hi,

i think we can remove this package.
* multiple open bugs
* HOMEPAGE gone, no alternative found
* no rdeps
* seems like we are pretty much the only distro who has this package (checking repology)
* i also don't think this package is useful as a standalone software?
