Feel free to join, anyway, if I don't misremember, LXDE is dead
for a
long time in favor of LXQT... in that case treecleaning the packages
would also be an option
Thanks

me too. I have it on several (older) systems. Hopefully there will be
a news item, when the time comes, with instructions on migration to
lxqt or a listing of other light weight replacement options, with a
wee bit of migration detail....

I was under the impression that both LXDE and LXQT would continue
development, but that LXQT would be favoured. Is there an official
statement that LXDE is dead?

Upstream:: NO :: Release date and age February 21, 2016
But upstream is dev light, to say the least. Here at gentoo,
the dev maint situation for lxde is:: skinny, at best [1].
So I guess dev are reading the tea leaves. I'm sure a proxy-maintainer
stepping forward for either, would be keenly appreciated, but lxqt has
always been on my scope.... ymmv. If you believe upstream, then lxqt is
the future.
