Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I request assistance with maintaining the software-center package. Or
killing it.
I don't have enough days (or weeks?) to get a new upstream version
working.
The package description is:
The Software Center lets you browse and install thousands of
free applications available for your System. You can view available
software by category, or search quickly by name or description.
You can also examine the software already installed, and remove items
you no longer need.
.
To install or remove software using USC, you need administrator access
on the computer.
This package consists of horrible Ubuntu-specific that needs to be patched
to work on Debian. It needs an update to the new upstream version, but as
the code became increasingly more Ubuntu-specific and I don't have enough
free hours to refactor this codebase or hack the Ubuntu stuff out in some
way, I need some help. This needs people to disable Ubuntu SSO and similar
stuff, as they are pointless to maintain in Debian, and won't offer us any
real features.
A better way forward is gnome-software, but I believe it needs some more
time to implement/discuss the required changes with ftpmasters, but that's
mak's work.
