  • Bug#1110187: Is this package still being maintained?

    From Lee Garrett@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 31 15:50:01 2025
    Source: kworkflow
    Version: 20191112-1.2
    Severity: normal
    X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

    Hi,

    there only seems to be an initial upload by the maintainer to close the ITP, and
    after that there are only two NMUs. The package itself has not been updated in 6
    years, despite upstream having done many release it that time. Maybe it's time to either pass it on to a new maintainer or remove it?

    Regards,
    Lee

    Hi once again, Lee

    You are right, it has been quite some time since kworkflow has been
    updated. As I mentioned in the reply to bug #1110187, I am close to open
    a MR updating the package, and aim to keep maintaining it after that.

    Thank you for the report,
    David
