Bug#364295: FLTK2 very likely will never be uploaded to Debian
tag 364295 + wontfix kthxbye Hi, I'm very sure that nobody will ever package FLTK 2.0 for Debian (anymore) despite it's no more non-free -- because it's deprecated, was never released as stable and is obsoleted by FLTK 1.3 which is in Debian Unstable. Additionally most software who build upon FLTK 2.0 now uses FLTK 1.3, too, like e.g. Dillo which I uploaded just recently to Debian Experimental. I would have closed the RFP for FLTK 2.0 (http://bugs.debian.org/364295) because of that, but as #192827 (xdiskusage: Printing doesn't manage non-ASCII characters, http://bugs.debian.org/192827) is still blocked by that RFP, I just tagged it as "wontfix". I tried to build xdiskusage against FLTK 1.3 instead of 1.1 (1.3 has been released recently and entered Debian Unstable just shortly afterwards) and it surprisingly built out of the box. (FLWM did not.) It also works -- until you have an Directory with UTF-8 names in. Then the xdiskusage window becomes somehow transparent (with ratpoison WM at least), but clicking on that invisible window still gives the pop-up menu and allows to export into PostScript. That PostScript nevertheless looks not like UTF-8, but also not like just UTF-8 interpreted as ISO-Latin, e.g. no à in there. I nevertheless hope that #192827 can be solved by using FLTK 1.3 and a little bit of tweaking. Thierry: Maybe you can poke the xdiskusage upstream about this issue again, with a pointer to FLTK 1.3?

Bug#364295: fltk2: changing back from ITP to RFP
retitle 364295 RFP: fltk2 -- Fast Light (gui) ToolKit version 2 noowner 364295 thanks Hi, This is an automatic email to change the status of fltk2 back from ITP (Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen any activity during the last 6 months. If you are still interested in adopting fltk2, please send a mail to with: retitle 364295 ITP: fltk2 -- Fast Light (gui) ToolKit version 2 owner 364295 ! thanks However, it is not recommended to keep ITP for a long time without acting on the package, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to refrain from packaging that software. It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to time, by mailing <364...@bugs.debian.org>.

Bug#364295: fltk2 seems more or less dead
Hi, JFTR: despite they updated the license in fall 2009, according to http://www.fltk.org/articles.php?L825 and http://fltk.org/software.php#SVN, fltk 2 is not further developed. Instead fltk 1.3 is the active development branch and the next planned branches are 1.4 and 3.0. There though seem to be actively developed software (like Dillo) based on it, so it may still be nice to have it in Debian. But it will be more work than if there were active development on fltk 2.

Gnash developers have recommended me to use FLTK2 as a backend for gnash. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnash-dev/2007-05/msg00373.html Is there any plan to have it in the archive soon? Do you need a helping hand? Greetings, Miry
