Bug#790601: revelation: depends on python-gnome2 which is deprecated

[Jeremy Bicha]

Hi,

This is a reminder that if you want revelation to be in Debian 10
"Buster", it needs to migrate to Testing by early February.

revelation is one of the final packages blocking libgnome's removal
from Debian so this will need to be ported or removed soon.

Thanks,
Jeremy Bicha

Hi.

Just for the records, it's keepass2, not keypass2, sorry.

Best regards,

It seems that keypass2 could be an option, importing from the Revelation XML 
(which can be exported from Revelation before upgrade/switch).

Hope this helps,

Hi.

Now that revelation is almost gone from Debian, I've looked at the upstream 
package which looks quite unmaintained for a while.

Would you have any news about the future of revelation in Debian ?

I think that it would be great to have some migration options to other password 
managers.

Would you have any suggestion ?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
