It's still maintained. Not sure why mgorny removed the metadata...
Comment 3 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2024-06-12 18:46:04 UTC
You haven't touched the package in 2.5 years, regardless of what is in metadata.xml.
Comment 4 Luke-Jr 2024-06-12 19:20:34 UTC
It hasn't required any touching. The software is stable.
Comment 5 Eli Schwartz gentoo-dev 2024-06-14 06:10:51 UTC
You haven't touched *any* packages in 2.5 years AFAICT.

And the fact that this package uses EAPI 6 is a pretty clear indicator that it needed touching...
Comment 6 Luke-Jr 2024-06-14 14:54:39 UTC
Nope, still works fine... idk why you're so desperate to delete packages for no reason.
