There is an upstream patch. Please delay for one more week.

Bug#893861: thawab: Intent to remove from Debian
There has been a lot of progress recently on packaging a newer eclipse that won't require the old webkitgtk. I'm going to convert this bug into a thawab removal bug in a week unless I hear otherwise from you. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but I think it's a bit more polite to start the removal now rather than waiting until the freezes start when release team policy won't generally allow "new" packages in to Testing. I did ping upstream again at https://github.com/ojuba-org/thawab/issues/14 Thanks, Jeremy Bicha

Still waiting for the > reply. Thank you for replying. We're still blocked on eclipse. Someone needs to see how bad it breaks if the webkitgtk support is disabled (probably with a hacky patch). I'm hoping we can get this done this year. So until eclipse is handled, there is no urgent need to remove thawab from Debian, if removing thawab will cause you too much inconvenience. (It's already been removed from Testing.) But once eclipse is handled, I expect we will try to remove thawab promptly if it's still not ported away from the old webkitgtk. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha

Final warning. If we don't hear back immediately, I will be converting this bug into a Debian removal bug for thawab very soon. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
Bug#893861: thawab: Intent to remove from Debian
Source: thawab Version: 3.2.0-1.2 Severity: serious Tags: buster sid X-Debbugs-CC: aelmahmo...@users.sourceforge.net thawab's last maintainer upload was 3 years ago. It was removed from Debian Testing 8 months ago because it depends on the old webkitgtk. It is now one of the last few apps preventing the complete removal of the old webkitgtk from Debian. Are you ok with me filing a removal bug now? If this issue is fixed, thawab could be reintroduced to Debian. (I think you can ask the ftpmasters for expedited processing since it was already in Debian.) I contacted أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) in late December about this issue but didn't receive a reply yet. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
