Anything that lessens the number of different window managers in Debian is a Good Thing(tm) ;-) popularity contest says this about the various fvwm packages: #rank name inst vote old recent no-files 1726 fvwm 1078 515 470 93 0 3897 fvwm-crystal 109 49 43 17 0 4640 fvwm95 464 20 91 11 342 6770 fvwm1 31 11 17 3 0 9068 fvwm-icons 793 0 0 0 793 so fvwm95 still has some users. How about killing fvwm1, too, which seems to have even fewer users? No new upstream uploaded to Debian since 1997. (I don't know anything about these window managers, perhaps there are some devoted fvwm1 followers so keeping it may be mandated. Somebody at least cared enough to NMU it recently. popcon numbers alone should certainly not be the only source for deciding this.) cheers -- vbi -- featured link: http://fortytwo.ch/gpg/subkeys
