Hello openSUSE!

following packages are currently pending deletion from openSUSE Leap 15.2. Most of them are related to https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1159041

Please do NOT drop keepassx!

...

keepassx

This is used by a number of opensuse users and has a decade of followers that rely on this package.

If you check the BSC thread, it says

keepassx kpassgen

keepassxc should be preferred Abandoned security applications mean they're dangerous for users.

Many users will be caught by the package removals -- that's why posts like this would be more uses on the "users" list. Many users do not follow the factory list and will wholly be caught off-guard by the changes.

The question is: Would you find new maintainers on the users list? Because that is what is needed to keep it alive, no? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I don't see version 2.5.3 of keepassx:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KeePassX> <https://www.keepassx.org/>

Now, KeePassXC does have version 2.5.3, different fork.

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KeePassXC> <https://keepassxc.org/>

You are right, sorry.

No problem :-) Now, I do not know/see why use KeePassX instead of KeePassXC. What advantages has the older version? Compatibility with Android app, perhaps? I use KeePassXC and I depend on it. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
