Bug#1120406: RM: buzztrax -- RoQA; depends on clutter
Package: ftp.debian.org
X-Debbugs-Cc: buzztrax@packages.debian.org
User: ftp.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: remove
Control: affects -1 src:buzztrax
Please remove buzztrax from Unstable. It depends on clutter-1.0 and
clutter-gtk which will not be included in Debian 14. See
https://bugs.debian.org/996690
In early 2024, there was some work upstream on porting to gtk4 (which
would remove the clutter dependencies), but that work appears to have
stalled soon afterwards and this work was not merged to upstream's
master branch.

I have uploaded buzztrax to Experimental to make it easier for it to
be reintroduced to Unstable when that porting work is completed.
It's been requested for Buzztrax to be distributed as a Flatpak to
avoid the dependency issue.
