oxide will not be maintained going forward to provide security
support. As it can be used to view untrusted content, it should not be
used anymore.
I have not received objections about them yet, however the path
forward is to port away from oxide.

I do not see many things that depend on oxide-qt in the Ubuntu
archive. THere is unity-webapps-qml (ported), webbrowser-app (to be
dropped) and so on.

There are no incentives to maintain this component for
out-of-the-archive builds. To preserve working state in the ppa, you
may wish to use copy-package script from ubuntu-archive-tools to copy
the latest oxide-qt binaries from the Ubuntu archive into the affected
PPAs.

[Khurshid Alam]

Not sure why oxide is being removed. Various qt-apps/oauth2-gui (search
in kubuntu's ppa, getdeb) are still using it. Didn't you get any
objection from them?

If it is compiling just fine with qt-5.9 (it does, I checked), Ubuntu
should keep it in universe.

  These projects are discontinued, unsupported and should be removed.

  I haven't done any analysis of the deps or rdeps to find out if there
  is more to cull, or if there is some untangling to do.

  I know of two tasks other than removing packages -

   Unity ships an Amazon launcher in its preset favourites which
  launches a binary from unity-webapps-service. That should be removed.

   We need to keep providing the Amazon launcher by default (in GNOME
  Shell) - it should be reimplemented and added to Shell by default.

Oxide can be removed. It's no longer supported.

[Jamie Strandboge]

Are all of these unsupported? I know that the signage effort was
initially using webapp-container (part of webbrowser-app) with mir. Even
if webbrowser-app were removed, oxide-qt might still be interesting for
signage/etc since it can be used with upstream Qt.

I've not heard an official statement on these as they relate to signage
(et al), so I thought I'd ask.

It's /usr/share/applications/ubuntu-amazon-default.desktop, so...

  application://ubuntu-amazon-default.desktop is in Unity's favourites 
  by default

and the chain is

 unity-webapps-service -> webapp-container -> webbrowser-app

I heard that we need to keep this, so if it is confirmed that Oxide, the
web browser and the Unity webapps are to be removed, then we will need
to provide this in another way. The desktop team will do that. (An
initial implementation might just be opening a new tab in Firefox.)
