[Bug 1728241] Re: stjerm project is abandoned(unmaintained) upstream -- please remove from archives
Thanks guys for having addressed this removal! I just came here to report the same request. > What bugs, specifically, do you believe justify this package's removal from the archive? Pretty much the entire set of bugs that have been fixed in VTE in the last 8 years :-) including potential data leakage by writing the scrollback data unencrytped to disk. > it has no obsolete library dependencies It uses an ancient version of VTE which I just asked to get removed in bug 1829377. There are about a dozen VTE-based emulators shipped by Ubuntu, IMO it's already too much. I see no point in carrying one that couldn't catch up with API changes for 8 years. I'm just commenting to confirm that you made the right choice by removing stjerm, thanks again! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728241 Title: stjerm project is abandoned(unmaintained) upstream -- please remove from archives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stjerm/+bug/1728241/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Steve Langasek please see my original bug for the details of why I believe this package should be removed unless upstream will update to latest released version: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stjerm/+bug/1717013 I followed directions given by Jeremy Bicha to request removal of the package as seen here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stjerm/+bug/1727768 On Wed, Apr 17, 2019 at 2:20 PM Steve Langasek wrote: > What bugs, specifically, do you believe justify this package's removal > from the archive? > > There are only two other bug reports open against the package, neither > of which at a glance seems particularly severe. > > The package does not appear to be causing maintenance problems for the > Ubuntu release (it builds from source; it has no obsolete library > dependencies). > > It doesn't seem necessary to remove this package from the archive. > > ** Changed in: stjerm (Ubuntu) >Status: Confirmed => Incomplete > > -- > You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to the bug > report. > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728241 > > Title: > stjerm project is abandoned(unmaintained) upstream -- please remove > from archives > > Status in stjerm package in Ubuntu: > Incomplete > > Bug description: > Please remove this outdated and unmaintained package from the Ubuntu > archives due to bugs and lack of upstream maintenance. > > Upstream: https://github.com/stjerm/stjerm > > ProblemType: Bug > DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 > Package: stjerm 0.16-0ubuntu2 > ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.10.0-37.41-generic 4.10.17 > Uname: Linux 4.10.0-37-generic x86_64 > ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu4.5 > Architecture: amd64 > Date: Sat Oct 28 09:48:28 2017 > EcryptfsInUse: Yes > InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-09-19 (39 days ago) > InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Budgie 17.04 "Zesty Zapus" - Release amd64 > (20170412) > SourcePackage: stjerm > UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) > > To manage notifications about this bug go to: > > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stjerm/+bug/1728241/+subscriptions > -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728241 Title: stjerm project is abandoned(unmaintained) upstream -- please remove from archives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stjerm/+bug/1728241/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1728241] Re: stjerm project is abandoned(unmaintained) upstream -- please remove from archives
What bugs, specifically, do you believe justify this package's removal from the archive? There are only two other bug reports open against the package, neither of which at a glance seems particularly severe. The package does not appear to be causing maintenance problems for the Ubuntu release (it builds from source; it has no obsolete library dependencies). It doesn't seem necessary to remove this package from the archive. ** Changed in: stjerm (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728241 Title: stjerm project is abandoned(unmaintained) upstream -- please remove from archives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stjerm/+bug/1728241/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
