Public bug reported: I was directed to the wiki page about removing packages (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive#Removing_Packages) - but I'm not a dev, so ScottK (#kubuntu-devel @ freenode) suggested I file this as a bug.
I would like to ask if Kino could possibly be removed from ubuntu mirrors prior to the release of 13.04, please. The problem with Kino at the present time is that it is broken, plain and simple. The UI plays video out two to three times faster than it should, there are issues with crashes, audio not functioning, etc. The issue arises however, when you read Kino's bugtracker on sourceforge.net, and find out that the project is inactive, and Kino itself has been totally unmaintained by its developers since mid-2010. I don't think it serves us any good sending out a busted package, which will remain so. Thank you. ** Affects: kino (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: unmaintained -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069514 Title: Request for kino package to be removed from ubuntu mirrors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kino/+bug/1069514/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
