Well, if this unblocks removal of pinentry-gtk2, fine with me, otherwise I don't see the point :) we already have #967764, which given upstream inactivity on the code so far is unlikely to be fixed anytime soon. I've been considering this for too long, perhaps with the hope of seeing some change, but at this point I think the only good idea is to request the removal of sylpheed from the archive. Users can easily migrate to claws-mail, which, while different, is similar and, more important, is a upstream maintained project. It was the first package I uploaded as a DD, almost twenty years ago¹, but one must put emotions aside and face the reality of the upstream project². regards, ¹ https://tracker.debian.org/news/89444/accepted-sylpheed-224-1-source-i386-all/ ² https://github.com/sylpheed-mail/sylpheed -- Ricardo Mones http://people.debian.org/~mones «The reason why worry kills more people than work is that more people worry than work.»
