Hi everyone, Gentoo has scheduled Mousepad for removal because it is unmaintained. At http://translations.xfce.org/projects/p/apps/r/master/l/ro/ I see that there hasn't been a release since version 0.2.16 on 2009-02-26 by Jannis Pohlmann. I would gladly argue with the Gentoo developers, but shouldn't someone make a new release of Mousepad anyway? At least three bugs were fixed and a slew of translations were checked in as logged at http://git.xfce.org/apps/mousepad/log/ . Also, it seems there's a need to remove some deprecated requirements: xfprint and libxfegui4.
Anyway, it seems strange to find that Mousepad is scheduled for removal in Gentoo. I thought it was an officially supported app in Xfce. Or at least that's what I see when translating Xfce apps in Romanian at http://translations.xfce.org/projects/p/apps/r/master/l/ro/ . Here's what Gentoo's Portage system said to me after the last update: !!! The following installed packages are masked: - app-editors/mousepad-0.2.16-r1 (masked by: package.mask) /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask: # Samuli Suominen <[email protected]> (22 Jan 2011) # Printing is broken because of xfprint requirement. # Package is using deprecated libxfcegui4 instead of libxfce4ui. # No development in about year at upstream git. # # Use app-editors/leafpad instead. # # Masked for removal in 30 days. -- mișu
