Hi,
I'm not sure that is correct to reply to this thread, sorry if not.

I currently use hamster and yes master tree is unmaintained but scenario is
difficult for this package. From old tree are been created different fork:
* one that split module in different modules (hamster-lib, hamster-gtk,
hamster-dbus,etc)
* one that rebuild module on ruby
* if I remember correctly one that continue python implementation

But, it isn't so clear at least for me, what is the best fork or stable (I
currently use old implememtation).
So, I think that could be a choice try to identify a more stable fork and
move ebuild to this new implementation (maybe with a rename of the package)
and move ebuild to proxy-maintainer group.

I will try to investigate on it in the christmas holidays and see if I can
take care of ebuild maintenance.

My cent

Thanks
G.

Dear Geaaru,

To me it looks like a completely new ebuild is required in that case.
Nice to hear that you want to proxy maintain it, you will find
everything on our overhauled wiki site
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers

Best,
Jonas

Hi Geaaru,

yes, you raise good points here and I found what's going on upstream pretty confusing too :) I really appreciate you wanting to investigate this further. We can help you or work with you to create a new package in case you need it.

Thanks,

Nick
