Bug#787953: depends on obsolete libasm2-java library



Hello,

FTR: As already noted in the initial bug report, substance and its
dependency liblaf-widget-java are unmaintained. Last version was
released in 2010.

https://java.net/projects/substance

Last Github snapshot:

https://github.com/kirillcool/substance

substance was forked into insubstantial:

https://github.com/Insubstantial/insubstantial

and Felix Natter (CCed) intended to maintain it for Debian (#787953).

Unfortunately insubstantial is also unmaintained now and still depends
on asm2.

I think it only makes sense to replace substance and its libraries with
insubstantial when upstream development continues and asm2 is replaced
with a newer, Java 7+ compatible version.

I am going to file bug reports against Jajuk and bgfinancas which depend
on substance and ask that they either move away from substance or take
over maintenance.

I have opened an upstream bug report for Jajuk already:

Markus
