Bug#352709: O: ssystem -- 3D solar system simulator



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal


I intend to orphan the ssystem package.  I'm trying to lighten my
load, and no longer need this low-resource/odd-hardware version
antecedent of Celestia personally.


The package description is:
 An OpenGL Solar System simulator which includes the sun, the nine
 planets, a few major satellites, and background stars.
 .
 This package has since been rewritten and repackaged as Celestia,
 but since that package has significantly higher hardware requirements
 than ssystem does, this package is being kept around.  Celestia
 has a better looking solar system, more options, and unlike ssystem,
 is actually still being worked on, so you probably only want to use
 this if you have older hardware that cannot run Celestia at a
 reasonable speed.
