Description Matt Jolly gentoo-dev 2025-01-29 23:30:55 UTC 
x11-wm/fvwm is unmaintained in Gentoo, is not supported upstream, and has a modern successor that does not bring in additional dependencies.

This bug is to track blockers on the removal of the package, particularly keywording and stabilising fvwm3 where required.
