retiring epdfview
Hello, epdfview, a light-weight PDF viewer, is not maintained upstream anymore. The upstream developer recommends to switch to evince-gtk (a build of evince with minimal dependencies, requested in BZ#906121) or zathura. I am going to retire epdfview from Fedora. epdfview is used in Xfce and LXDE spins. The maintainers need to decide what to do. My suggestion is to use evince-gtk once/if it becomes available.

Hi Michal, thanks for the heads-up. I fully agree to your suggestion. I already packaged zathura, but it's too minimalistic (zero mouse control, only vim keybindings) for me and probably most other people and I decided to not submit it for review.

I look forward to evince-gtk. kevin signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
