Hi Laszlo,
the upstream homepage now states:
| Closure Linter is deprecated
|
| As the syntax of JavaScript has continued to evolve, with ES2015 and
| beyond, it has become increasingly difficult to keep Closure Linter
| up to date. It is unstaffed, unmaintained, and deprecated. Most
| projects at Google have migrated to the new linter.
|
| For teams using the Closure tools, we recommend they use the new
| linter based on the Closure Compiler instead.
Given that closure-compiler is already packaged, let's simply remove
closure-linter?
Cheers,
Moritz
