Package: arandr
Version: 0.1.1-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hey,

this package is mostly useless now that we have RandR 1.3:

cor...@hidalgo: arandr
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/arandr", line 5, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/screenlayout/gui.py", line 296, in
main
    Application(file=file_to_open,
randr_display=options.randr_display).run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/screenlayout/gui.py", line 135, in
__init__
    self.widget = widget.ARandRWidget(display=randr_display)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/screenlayout/widget.py", line 30,
in __init__
    self._xrandr = XRandR(display=display)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/screenlayout/xrandr.py", line 22,
in __init__
    raise Exception("XRandR 1.2 required; for newer versions please adapt
the code")
Exception: XRandR 1.2 required; for newer versions please adapt the code

I'm not sure how much the code needs to be adapted, but at the moment it's
just useless, and upstream doesn't seem really aware of that (no new
upstream version for the moment).

Should arandr just be dropped? It was a nice tool, but…

Cheers,
