We do intend to package the new Rust version of gnome-metronome. This
has been blocked because it took us a while to get the Rust GTK
packaging up to date and more importantly, package rust-libadwaita in
a way that ftpmasters approved of.

rust-libadwaita-sys was recently accepted into Debian so we should be
able to get gnome-metronome updated later this year.

It feels to me like NEW processing is a bit slow these days so I would
prefer to avoid the wait. Therefore, I suggest we close this bug and
reconsider next year if gnome-metronome has still not made it to
Testing.

Thank you,

The only blocker for the rust version is the ongoing gtk-rs transition 
and one new gstreamer rust library.


gnome-metronome can be easily updated then, so RM'ing it now would just 
create extra work imho.


best,

Bug#1051437: RM: gnome-metronome -- RoQA; RC-buggy; replaced by completely new rust app

2023-09-07 Thread Bastian Germann

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: ftp.debian@packages.debian.org
Usertags: remove
Control: affects -1 + src:gnome-metronome

gnome-metronome has a RC bug that kept it from being released with bookworm. This will not be fixed because the app was 
replaced by a new one written in Rust. So please remove this dead implementation. The Rust app can be packaged as 
reintroduction if anybody volunteers to package it.
