  Version         : 0.7.43

  Description     : Project Gutenberg Etext reader

 gutenbrowser is a reader for etexts produced by Project Gutenberg. It
 integrates with KDE. You only need the libraries to run it though.
 .
 Project Gutenberg (http://promo.net/pg/index.html) aims to make public
 domain literature available to the world in ASCII text format.

I believe it is important to make the texts of the Gutenberg project
easily available, and that this package is the best way to do this in
Debian.

The package used to be part of Debian, but was orphaned in bug #214931
and removed in bug #221361.  The reason was the inactivity of the
upstream developer.

As far as I can tell, the last activity in the sourceforge CVS was
2003-11-21, when the source for the Zaurus PDA was updated.  Because
of this, I intend to restore this package in Debian.

CC to the upstream author, to make him aware of my plans.
