The problem is, why we are shipping a dead package?
Dead ?
https://bitbucket.org/troorl/pino3/
not sure it is dead
It is dead as in "build errors reported 1 year ago have not been fixed
Ok dead or nearly, no package maintainer, certainly alternatives (I
don't know) so we can drop it
pino is moved to obsoletes in our svn
Please remove it from mirrors
Pino may be dead or dieing, but it is still a very popular client for
Identi.ca. I find it a very good client, as a result I strongly believe
that it should definitely stay in the repos for Mageia 2.
If Pino is no longer made I think it would be good for many distros to
still provide it in their repos for at least another year
Also looking at things from a user point of view, I think that many
computer users don't mind using old software that is no longer
maintained as long as they can still use it for it's intended purpose. I
think that for myself and many other people that use Identi.ca Pino is
an example of this.
Unfortunately at the moment though in my install of Mageia 2 Alpha 1
with the latest updates, I can't install Pino using RPMdrake, because:
Sorry, the following package cannot be selected:
- pino-0.2.11-1.mga1.i586 (due to unsatisfied libnotify.so.1)
As for other clients that could be provided in the repos there's Gwibber
and Hotot and so on.
P.S
This is my first email to this mailing list or any Mageia mailing list,
and I think any mailing list in general.
