Hi! This package depends on libgtk2-perl, that I intend to remove from testing soon after the Buster release, and then from sid at some later point during the Bullseye development cycle: https://bugs.debian.org/912860 Usually I would write here: "Please get in touch with the upstream project and suggest they port this application to libgtk3-perl. I've personally ported a couple Perl GTK+ apps from 2.x to 3.x and it's rather straightforward. Upstream for the GTK+ 3 and GObject Introspection Perl bindings is responsive and happy to add missing bits to the bindings". But I notice that: - The previous maintainer (Cc'ed) before this package was orphaned is also the upstream author. - This package won't be in Buster due to #904562, which I filed back in July. So I guess that what this app needs is a new upstream maintainer. If that does not happen, I think we should remove this package from the archive. Cheers! -- intrigeri
