#52578: imlib and dependents: remove outdated GTK1/GNOME1 ports
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  devans@…     |      Owner:  devans@…
     Type:  defect       |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal       |  Milestone:
Component:  ports        |    Version:
 Keywords:  removal      |       Port:  imlib e16menuedit fnlib gtk-engines
                         |  imecho
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 I'm proposing to remove imlib and its 4 remaining dependents from
 MacPorts.  These are obsolete ports from the gtk1 era (middle to late
 1990's, gtk+ 2.0.0 was released 2002-03-08), are unmaintained and and have
 no other dependents.

 Here's the list with proposed actions to be performed

  * imlib (mark obsolete, replaced by imlib2, no dependents beyond the 4
 following)
  * e16menuedit (remove, no dependents)
  * fnlib (remove, no dependents)
  * gtk-engines (mark obsolete, replaced by gtk-engines2, no dependents)
  * imecho (remove, no dependents)

 If you know of reason why any of these should NOT be removed, please
 respond this week as, in the absence of any response, I plan to carry out
 these actions early next week.  I can't imagine there should be any
 objections but just in case ...
