Description Luke-Jr 2016-04-13 22:46:38 UTC
net-irc/konversation's last x86 stable version was 1.5.1, which has just been removed from the tree. This leaves only ~x86 version 1.6, which doesn't seem to really work decently: aside from needing to unmask numerous ~x86 dependencies, clickable links no longer work (they all say "Host not found"), and the X "selection" clipboard does not work even within the same Konversation window. So, Konversation 1.6 really isn't ready to be keyworded stable. But regardless of what 1.6's status is, it makes sense to leave the more functional 1.5.1 in tree.

This is a minor upstream issue.

Becone a Gentoo Developer, join the x86 arch team and make it great again:

I can see only one minor issue with 1.6, so feel free to restore the ebuild and put it in some overlay.
