[Debian-l10n-devel] Bug#885493: virtaal: Depends on unmaintained pygtk

[Jeremy Bicha]

Source: virtaal
Version: 0.7.1-4
Severity: important
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: oldlibs pygtk
Tags: sid buster

pygtk is unmaintained upstream. It has not had a release since GNOME 3
was released in 2011.

The way forward is to port your app to use GObject Introspection
bindings (and gtk3).

For more information on GObject Introspection see [1] and [2].

Please try to do this before the Buster release as we're going to
try to remove pygtk this cycle.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.
