I was surprised by the information that Dia was discontinued, because it is an useful tool which I continue to use.
So I looked into dia. Debian Stretch has dia 0.97.3+git20160930-6, which was uploaded at 23 May 2017. The package's metadata points at the project's homepage at: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Dia However, the homepage mentions that version 0.97.2 is the last released one, and it was released at 18 Dec 2011. I looked for the development version at https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Dia/Development and tried to execute 'git clone git://git.gnome.org/dia' but it failed claiming no route to the host, even though 'ping git.gnome.org' works. I tried numeric IP address, and it did not work as well. Going via Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dia_(software)) led me to: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/dia/ and then 'git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/dia.git' was successful. According to git log, the most recent real update is from 22 Jun 2017. Conclusion: Dia is still being maintained, even if only on the translations front. --- Omer Zak On Sun, 2018-09-16 at 19:07 +0300, Shay Gover wrote: > Hi, > > I'm looking for a diagram tool that supports RTL.
