Should webgui get removed as well? webgui has never been part of any stable release. WebGUI's upstream has been very slow for the last year or so, with only a couple of releases. The latest release, about a month and a half ago, still lists POE::Component::IKC as a dependency and it's used for a core workflow component -- it requires 0.2001 I've written upstream about their thoughts on the issue. I've no particular opinion on what to do with libpoe-api-peek-perl -- I certainly don't know how to fix it. If removal is the sane choice, go ahead and remove both. -- Prof. Ernesto Hernández-Novich - MYS-220C - @iamemhn Geek by nature, Linux by choice, Debian of course.
