Package: wnpp Followup-For: Bug #653976 Control: reassign 653976 ftp.debian.org Control: retitle 653976 RM: sage -- RoQM, superceeded, unmaintained (also upstream)
sage can be removed, it also has no r-depends. It is unmaintained (mkoch is MIA) and last commit on the upstream repository was 2009 (https://github.com/worldforge/sage/commits/master) I also checked back with Olek (my wordforge expert DM;-)) asking him about if sage is still useful: tobi, The simple answer is that Sage can be removed. The longer answer is that Sage supported the Sear client but both are no longer in active development. I believe it's been at least nine years since they were last updated. Ember development superseded Sear a number of years ago based on the concept of using third-party tools (such as OGRE) to simplify the client. This allowed Worldforge to focus on project-specific tasks instead of reinventing a wheel. Sear had much simpler dependencies but tried to do everything itself and therefore required much more support effort. -- Olek
