* Package name : mate-equake-applet Version : 1.3.8 Upstream Author : Jeroen van Aart <andr...@e-quake.org> * URL : http://www.e-quake.org * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : Mate panel applet which monitors earthquakes mate-equake-plugin is a panel applet for the mate panel which monitors earthquakes and displays an update each time a new earthquake occurs. In addition it can show alerts when heavy earthquakes have happened, display maps and webpages with more information, produce lists of hourly and daily earthquakes and update a handy signature file you can use in your emails. Many features are user configurable. This is a direct port for the mate desktop environment of an already existing debian package, xfce4-equake-plugin, made by the same author. It has all the same functionality. Equake was originally released as a gnome2 panel applet but was never offered to be included in Debian because gnome2 was deprecated. Since mate is a fork of gnome2 it made sense to port it. I will need a sponsor for this package to possibly be included in debian and will file a separate "RFS" bug for that.
