Hi Cyril,

Sorry yes. (I wish I had a better bug workflow. Stuff like this keeps getting
lost. Kind of ironic given the package.)

OK being realistic, I haven't devoted any time to this program in a long while.
There are a number of transitions that the package needs, not just on the Debian
side but also GTK2→3, glade → gtkbuilder, and no doubt more.

I think the odds are that we should remove it from Debian.  The package is not 
without merit, popcon says ~40 submitters which is pretty remarkable given the
state of the package IMHO.   Some of the feedback I've had suggests the idea is
a good one and people would welcome something that worked; but debgtd is not
there yet.

I currently structure my spare time so that I can devote Tuesday nights to
Debian work. Can we please sit on this until the end of Tuesday next week
(29th). I will try to look at it properly on that day and assess whether I can,
within a matter of weeks, make it shippable.  After that day if I have not
managed to do so then I will submit a removal request.

Does that sound sensible?

(that took more than 5 seconds, but it was worthwhile non-the-less.)
