As part of the ongoing goal to remove python2 from the installation media [1] ndisgtk was identified to still be using python2, pygtk and python-glade2.
Are there plans to port ndisgtk to python3, pygi and gtkbuilder ? Is ndisgtk still needed? Or can ubuntu-drivers-common take over this functionality. Would it be acceptable to drop the ndisgtk (GUI, not the command line ndiswrapper-utils) from the install images? The current instructions/documentation for ndiswrapper do list both ndisgtk and command line way of installing windows drivers. [2] I do want to question the need for ndiswrapper on the install media in recent years: (i) given that all major computer manufacturers ship ubuntu pre-installed and (ii) preferred way to get the windows driver is over the network [2] (iii) and the steps to manually retrieve windows drivers from a windows installation are harder to follow than ndiswrapper command-line instructions.
