Interesting. I've been using it in Jessie and do believe I took it from Debian repos. > Here is the bug that requested its removal: > > https://bugs.debian.org/617593 I found no details about the bug.

With gapcmon I did not need to start my web browser. It was just a click away. I'll try web interface. Is it easy to use? Oh, well, if I don't like it I still have an option to use terminal. :-) Thank you Roberto.
