Hello everyone.
I try to clean up a little our distribution, because some packages are unmaintained for a while or they just use depreciated protocols, whatever. But Like DimStar told me, I should ask others maintainers opinions about it. So I made a list in two parts, a first with obsolete packages and their possible replacements, and a second with packages which could be simply removed.
camsource > cheese
As we discussed in your drop request, cheese is a UI tool. camsource is a quite complex commandline / webcam webserver tool, it has an entirely different usage pattern.
freetype > freetype2
We can drop freetype if the last user is gone or converted, (currently: gltt, libLASi, mupdf, openttd, font-specimen, tuxpaint, texlive, VFlib3)
##### compat-openssl097g
For this package I just filed a drop request. Had no idea this unsecure thing was still there.

This might probably still be used by people, even if enscript offers similar functionality. CIao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
