Source: gtkgl2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream wontfix
User: [email protected]
Usertags: oldlibs gtkgl2

gtkgl2 appears to have become unmaintained upstream:

* http://www.mono-project.com/GtkGLArea redirects to
  https://www.mono-project.com/archived/gtkglarea/ which points to
  http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gtkglarea/ which no longer exists

* I cannot find an archived project for it on gitlab.gnome.org, the
  replacement for git.gnome.org

* https://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtkglarea/2.0/ latest release
  was in 2009

and perhaps also in Debian:

* the most recent maintainer upload was in 2011

* the 2009 2.1.0 release reached Debian as an NMU, despite the Debian
  maintainer being an upstream maintainer

New software should almost certainly not use this, and it might be time
to remove it from Debian.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

    gtkgl2 |    2.1.0-1 | source
libgtkgl2.0-1 |    2.1.0-1 | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, 
mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
libgtkgl2.0-dev |    2.1.0-1 | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, 
mipsel, ppc64el, s390x

------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; unmaintained upstream; depends on gtk2; orphaned
----------------------------------------------

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
