Khurshid and Mardy, thank you very much for your feedback. libaccounts-glib, libsignon-glib, signon, signon-plugin-oauth, signon- plugin-password, telepathy-accounts-glib (and a few more with more obvious K sounding names) are being kept because they are used in KDE Plasma.
Khurshid, is that sufficient for what you need? Or do you also need account-plugins? Mardy, I don't think there's a problem with ubports maintained stuff re- entering Ubuntu if it's maintained. It looks to me like ubports is currently focused on Xenial and PPAs which is a good approach too. The list of Unity8 related removals is much longer (see xnox's estimate in his merge proposal). This bug focuses on UOA stuff which does end up including Unity8 too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center- signon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1695928 Title: Please remove obsolete UOA packages Status in gnome-control-center-signon package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu Online Accounts is no longer maintained. There is an alternative, GNOME Online Accounts for the GNOME desktop. Also, Unity's Online Accounts settings panel does not currently work without oxide-qt but oxide-qt will be removed from Ubuntu 17.10.
