Hi David,

In case you've missed it, here's my message from 2 months ago:

I could not spot any upstream activity since 3+ years so I am not very
hopeful wrt. the chances they port the code to GTK 3 themselves :/

Note to myself: asciio is the last blocker for removing
libdata-treedumper-renderer-gtk-perl from the archive.

Cheers,
