Unless I'm being blind, the LXQt project does not need this one, making it
'maintainer-needed':

x11-libs/libfm

Seems to be needed by LXDE stuff only. Regarding that, should we
last-rite remaining LXDE stuff? It's pretty clear the development has
shifted to LXQT, and LXDE seems abandoned upstream.

There has been some activity in, for example, libfm itself a few months
ago (by non-LXQt developers, or at least I don't recognise the names):

https://git.lxde.org/gitweb/?a=project_list;pf=lxde

But yeah, so far it looks like no one is picking it up in Gentoo either,
so it might be time.
