Bug#1060451: jamin: build-depends (unnecessarily?) on unmaintained libclutter-gtk-1.0-dev



Source: jamin
Version: 0.98.9~git20170111~199091~repack1-2
Severity: important

This package build-depends on libclutter-gtk-1.0-dev, which is dead
upstream (and has been effectively unmaintained for a while).

Looking at codesearch, it looks as though all the calls into
clutter-related APIs are commented-out, so perhaps this dependency is not
actually needed? If it can be removed without affecting functionality,
please do.

Or, if there are uses of it that I'm not seeing,
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Initiatives/-/issues/31 has some porting
notes for projects that are part of GNOME, which might be useful
inspiration for porting this package.

Thanks,
