I contacted upstream when this bug was filed originally, and he doesn't have time to work on porting the applet it until GNOME 3 is in testing. I tried to port the applet when GNOME 3 hit unstable on October 15, but was unable to overcome the problems that GNOME 3 introduced on my desktop and had to switch to XFCE. > The last action from the Debian maintainer is from 2010-06-16. I tried to get 2.0.16 uploaded in the middle of May 2011 (that would have closed all the open bugs at the time, including the, then only, RC-bug), but could not find a sponsor due to the imminent inclusion of GNOME 3 in Debian. > This bug report has been open since Aug, 2011 with no reply so far. > There is another RC bug which hasn't been unanswered by the Debian > maintainer for even longer, so the package looks pretty much > unmaintained and we don't expect any porting efforts any time soon. Well, the other RC bug, filed on May 3 2011, would have been closed within 11 days had GNOME 3 not blocked my finding a sponsor. o o o Anyway, I just wanted to clarify these points - I see no way to avoid removing bubblemon from Debian; so be it.
