I am not in a position to decide the faith of a package that I do not maintain. It looks like a tiny little program that doesn't appear to require too much effort wrt maintenance. Its usefulness is debatable but I can say the same about tons of other Debian packages that are actively maintained upstream but I don't use; that's very subjective. > I apologize for the time you spent working on this package. No problem, my patch shouldn't stop you from removing the package if that is deemed as the better course of action. (Although if you or other members of the GNOME team intend to remove rdeps rather than porting to current APIs, I would appreciate if you communicate your intention early enough to avoid unnecessary porting work.)
