Bug#941340: sooperlooper: Should sooperlooper be removed from Debian?

[Olivier Humbert]

Hi here.

Adding a +1 here for keeping SooperLooper in Debian archive. It's a 
great tools without much competitor at the same level out there.

I've had a look to the outstanding bugs.
1. one is just a user using the wrong binary to launch sooperlooper 
(#920813)
2. one is probably something coming from the time stretch was in dev 
(#836232) and I can't reproduce it now on Stretch or Buster.
3. one is from a very old version of sooperlooper : 1.6.14 dating back 
from 2009 (see http://essej.net/sooperlooper/), so should probably be 
closed if unreproducible nowadays (#596392)
4. the last one is about building against gtk3 wx instead of gtk wx and 
it is the case nowadays if I'm not wrong reading at 
https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/sooperlooper/blob/master/debian/control 
so should probably be closed as well (#933425)

I've been talking with upstream those last few days and he might be 
willing to release a new version including a bunch of different fixes. 
See https://github.com/essej/sooperlooper/pull/13

It could then be wise to keep it in Debian regarding all of that.
Hope that helps.
Olivier
