Public bug reported: xchat-gnome is unmaintained.
It was removed from Debian and Ubuntu 17.04. It was reintroduced to Ubuntu but without any real commitment to maintain the package. Its last upstream release was 9 years ago https://download.gnome.org/sources/xchat-gnome/0.26/ The Ubuntu version is a bizarre mix up of a git snapshot and 37 patches. Users would be better off switching to hexchat which is actually maintained. See also https://launchpad.net/bugs/1753169 for xchat, a somewhat different app with the same general problem. ** Affects: xchat-gnome (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to xchat-gnome in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1758163 Title: Please remove xchat-gnome from Ubuntu (again) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat-gnome/+bug/1758163/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
