Yes, literally, there is no alternative to > the gnome-system-tools and it depends on system-tools-backends. And liboobs. As discussed on IRC, if you want to keep it, please adopt gnome-system-tools, liboobs and system-tools-backend, i.e. drop the team and everyone from Uploaders, drop Vcs-*, etc. You should probably look for alternative software that is maintained though...

Well, while your point is right, removal of system-tools-backends will broke LXDE usability because there is no other alternative package to manage users - other known users management tools are integrated into GNOME and KDE, and gnome-system-tools is only standalone package which can be used in any other DE. Yes, literally, there is no alternative to the gnome-system-tools and it depends on system-tools-backends.
Bug#821862: Do not release with stretch
Source: system-tools-backends Version: 2.10.2-2 Severity: serious system-tools-backends is dead and no longer maintained properly (upstream and downstream) We shouldn't release stretch with this package, so I'm filing this RC bug. Eventually we should remove it from the archive completely. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
