Talked to the Pandora-build developer who says it is abandoned (and has
been for 5 years).   An older version is still in Debian - not sure the
best way forward for that.

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu Quickly is no longer being maintained and has been replaced by
  the Ubuntu SDK (and Make).  The last commit was in 2012. If you stumble
  across the documentation [1] you might believe this is the way to make
  Ubuntu apps easily.   It also defaults to technologies we no longer
  recommend python2 and gtk2*.
  
  I did email the desktop team and got confirmations it's no longer needed
  [2].  Let's remove both source and binaries from 15.10 if possible.
  
  Source Packages to remove:  quickly, quickly-widgets, 
quickly-unity-lens-template, unity-singlet
- Binary package list - python-quickly-common python-quickly-core 
python-quickly.widgets python-unity-singlet quickly 
+ Binary package list - python-quickly-common python-quickly-core 
python-quickly.widgets python-unity-singlet quickly
  quickly-ubuntu-template quickly-unity-lens-template quickly-widgets 
quickly-ubuntu-template
  
- BLOCKED: Pandora-build might still be required in some form -
- investigating.
+ Pandora-build is no longer needed and can be removed, but it might be
+ trickier because an older version is Debian.

  * In fact it might be the key blocker for a few old glade gtk2 packages in 
repo.
