Wasn't genius still maintained? It's on my list to-update applications when I get to updating gnome packages again
I'm not sure if I understand what you wrote but if you are currently maintaining (updating & fixing) genius and want to continue, please adopt it. According to the dashboard, it is listed as an orphan.
gnome-audio audio files for gnome. Part of gnome-extra group. Any takers? Jan? Roman?
I'll take it, it doesn't need any maintenance as it never gets updated. Not sure about it future though, but we'll see by the time GNOME decides to replace it (there's a discussion about sounds on desktop-devel-list)
Don't forget to adopt it (via the dashboard).
libgnomesu gksu and kdesu provide same functionality AFAIK it's "needed" by gnome-system-monitor, but it could be libgksu that is required by that thing. I'll maintain it if there's a package in extra that needs it.
No package depends on it (the same goes for all packages in these lists). gnome-system-monitor depends on libgksu. Do you still want it?
nss_ldap Description: The nss_ldap module provides the means for pam_ldap Description: The pam_ldap module provides the means for I use it on my arch box. If nobody wants to maintain it, I'll do.
pdns-ldap unused lib, might be included in pdns (currently orphaned) pdns-mysql unused lib, might be included in pdns (currently orphaned) pdns-pgsql unused lib, might be included in pdns (currently orphaned) pdns-recursor Description: PowerDNS recursor I'll update powerdns soon and merge the pdns-* things in it. Pdns-recursor stays standalone. Don't remove it, powerdns is pretty useless without a recursor for most people.
OK, don't forget to adopt them. ;) You'll also want pdns too.
perl-email-date unused perl module. To Jan: You added it to the repo It was added as dependency to some other perl module. I don't add perl modules for fun.
No package depends on perl-email-date. I get these information by grepping the up-to-date cvs tree. You also added the following packages on the same day: perl-email-abstract perl-email-simple perl-module-pluggable perl-time-piece These perl modules are all orphaned and, apart from a couple of inter-dependency between them, are not makedepends or depends of any other packages in the repo. Either the package that depended on it has been removed from the repo or it was removed from its depends array. Or something else happened.
vbetool Description: vbetool uses lrmi in order to run code from Used by pm-utils AFAIK.
pm-utils only depends on glibc. No package depends on vbetool. Thanks for the input. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
