Source: cegui-mk2
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
While opening bugs for packages that depend on libsdl1.2, I noticed
that cegui-mk2 seems to be a library that is not depended on by anything
in Debian. Is it still useful to have in the distribution?
Looking at https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=cegui-mk2, there
were a relatively large number of installations in the 2008-2010 period,
and a dramatic drop after 2010. I assume this is a result of some game
that used to use cegui-mk2 either switching away from it or being removed
from Debian.
If cegui-mk2 is no longer useful, we could remove it from the archive to
avoid it taking up QA time.
If it's removed, as far as I can see, we could also remove irrlicht (which
was previously a dependency for minetest, but minetest has switched to
a vendored fork of irrlicht).
