Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
I am the upstream author and the Debian package maintainer of evilvte.
I have not noticed bug #790168[1] until today, and I think it is time
to remove the package.
evilvte was one of the first terminal emulators to support libvte-2.90,
and could support gtk2/gtk3 via dlopen trick.
I still use evilvte as my daily terminal emulator, but I have no plan
to support libvte-2.91 and newer version of gtk3.
evilvte uses build-time configuration, so remove the pre-built package
will not harm those users of evilvte. :-P
Kind regards

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
evilvte | 0.5.1-1 | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, hurd-i386, i386,
kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mips64el, mipsel, powerpc, ppc64el, s390x
------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; depends on deprecated lib, upstream no plan to fix it
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
