Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
Following package up for grabs: |
4 |
|
5 |
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extension-pop-shell |
6 |
dev-lang/typescript |
7 |
|
8 |
I no longer uses pop-shell and it's > 1y outdated. |
9 |
typescript is a build dependency and pop-shell is it's only revdep. |
10 |
|
11 |
However, there are plenty of typescript users and package is popular. |
12 |
Yes, it's npm package, but it's unique because it has no external deps. |
13 |
Easy to maintain too, no bugs open, only dependency is nodejs[npm] |
14 |
May use eapi8 bump. |
15 |
|
16 |
As for pop-shell, bump will require packaging 2 extra deps: |
17 |
pop-launcher |
18 |
pop-shortcuts |
19 |
Both are rust, the latter uses justfile instead of makefile. |
20 |
It also uses rustls with ring crate, which is not portable and had no |
21 |
commits since april 2022. |
22 |
|
23 |
|
24 |
So my recommendation is to drop pop-shell or move to guru. |
25 |
And keep typescript in repo, it's popular. |
26 |

Thanks for reading! |
