Bug#457022: O: ofbis -- simple Linux framebuffer graphical library

2007-12-18 Thread Guillem Jover
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I orphaned the ofbis package some days ago. I packaged this library as
a requisite for zen (a modular web browser), but both projects stalled
upstream, and never ended up uploading zen.

Someone might be interested in taking over this package, and its
related alioth project [0], ask me and I'll transfer it. If the package
has not been taken over in several months I might ask for its removal.


The package description is:
 It is intended to be fast and easy to both use and support, with respect of
 adding support for other graphical types and machines.
 It supports 8-bit static pseudocolor mode (chunky) and 16-bit truecolor.
 .
 This package contains the libofbis development files (headers and static
 libraries). It is only needed if you want to compile programs that use
 oFBis.


regards,
guillem

Given the low popcon, the dead-upstream status and the orphan status I'd go for
removing this package, would that make sense for you?

Yes, I guess it's about time. Thanks for the reminder. Done so now.
