In Debian we have so called popularity contest that users can switch on voluntarily - so the numbers are probably lower than the real usage. We also do not have numbers of Debian derivatives like Ubuntu and others. Here you can see a graph of the popcon numbers: https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=pynast The most important number of the current usage is vote (=67) which is the number of people who use this package regularly (not just hanging around unused on the hard disk). > If not many, it might make more sense for you to drop support for it as I'm > essentially hoping to discontinue this project (though I haven't officially > decided to do that yet). When comparing with other packages maintained by Debian Med this would have some bad influence on the workflow of several users. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
