[Debian-on-mobile-maintainers] Bug#1112189: phosh-games: indirectly depends on unmaintained clutter library

Package: phosh-games
Severity: important
Tags: forky sid upstream
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: oldlibs clutter

phosh-games depends on gnome-2048, which depends on clutter-1.0, which 
is dead upstream. I think we should remove clutter-1.0 from Debian 
before the Debian 14 'forky' release, so I am intending to escalate 
#996690 to RC severity soon.

There are two ways this could be resolved: either someone could port 
gnome-2048 to GTK 4 or some other maintained library (resolving 
#1018124, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-2048/-/issues/26 
upstream), or the dependency could be dropped from phosh-games.

Thanks,
