** Description changed: - Lernid is unmaintained and should be removed from Ubuntu until someone - wants to resurrect it. + [Impact] - It depends on python-webkit which I think we want to try to remove this - year. + lernid depends on python-webkit, which is deprecated and going + to be removed from the Debian archive. lernid should switch to using + the GObject Introspection bindings for webkit, ideally + gir1.2-webkit2-3.0 for Webkit2 and gtk+3 as upstream has already + dropped WebKit1 (so gir1.2-webkit-1.0 and gir1.2-webkit-3.0 are + likely to be dropped from Debian in the near future). - It is set up as a frontend for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom - but that wiki page says "As of 2014 the Ubuntu Classroom project is no longer active." + [Other Info] - Upon first launch, it offers to connect via IRC to either #ubuntu- - classroom or the Spanish equivalent. Except it doesn't actually appear - to connect to anything (I learned that #ubuntu-classroom redirects to - #ubuntu which maybe confuses this app). - - Upon "connecting", it opens the above wiki page. There is a tab for a - terminal and a tab for a calendar but the calendar doesn't show any - events. - - Original bug report - =================== - As reported at https://bugs.debian.org/790218 the Debian developers would like to remove python-webkit from the repositories because it uses libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 which is no longer maintained. + As reported at https://bugs.debian.org/790218 the Debian developers + would like to remove python-webkit from the repositories because it uses + libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 which is no longer maintained. The developers recommend you port lernid to GTK3 and then build against gir1.2-webkitgtk-3.0, or preferably gir1.2-webkit2-4.0. There's some additional info at https://bugs.debian.org/749258
