There doesn't seem to be a good technical reason, maybe it's as simple as the maintainer thought there shouldn't be two competing apps with the same functionality? I unblocked them here, and re-emerged both. Nothing extra was pulled in, so there are no conflicting libs. Unfortunately I can't attach a screenshot as proof - both remove their own window to do the capture :-) -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
