However, I do not have the time nor the need anymore to get popsicle into debian. Another issue is popsicle still using GTK3. Save for squeekboard in debian I'd have filed removal requests for it since it's only getting security updates and no new features (effectively deprecated). Once squeekboard gets ported to rust-GTK4 I will start filing RM requests since that will greatly simplify the maintenance of those libraries. All other (GNOME) apps have switched to GTK4. I'd appreciate it if no new packages depending on rust-GTK3 will be introduced as that will only complicate things. fwiw, kisoimagewriter exists as a KDE program for creating bootable drives. best, -- Matthias Geiger Debian Maintainer "Freiheit ist immer Freiheit des anders Denkenden" -- Rosa Luxemburg OpenPGP_0x18BD106B3B6C5475.asc Description: OpenPGP public key OpenPGP_signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I got it down to nine missing crates from more than twenty. I'm still working on it. One of the required crates, iso9660 does not build, so I'll have to look into it. I should be able to work faster trough the other missing crates since they don't involve a ton of reverse dependencies.
