Bug#560990: O: xpaint -- simple paint program for X



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the xpaint package.

Rationale:
- last maintainer upload 2005-09-15
- unhandled bugs, some even with patches, without maintainer feedback
- no reply to repeated maintainer mail pings

The package description is:
 XPaint is suitable for producing simple graphics. It does offer some
 advanced features such as image processing functions and gradient
 fill.
 .
 In the C Script Editor of XPaint, the External editor in the File menu
 will invoke x-terminal-emulator -e sensible-editor.
 .
 The gs-gpl package will be needed for PDF/PS reading, netpbm will be needed
 for external conversion, lpr for printing.
 .
 Homepage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sf-xpaint/

Recently several new upstream version have been released that are worth
checking. Please note that I as the previous Uploader/Sponsor for this
package don't intend to stay involved as my personal preferences have
shifted somewhat over the last few years ...

Cheers,
Flo
