Hi folks, |
| 2 |

Rxvt is ancient. It's been replace by rxvt-unicode. Rxvt hasn't seen |
| 4 |
updates in years. Recently it's been the subject of a security |
| 5 |
vulnerability, and I suspect it's filled with other potential |
| 6 |
vulnerabilities. Rxvt has no upstream. I tried reaching out to the |
| 7 |
former upstream, and it's evident everybody has moved on and has no |
| 8 |
interest in further maintenance. It doesn't even have a Gentoo |
| 9 |
maintainer! |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Given this, I'd like to remove rxvt from Gentoo, with the usual |
| 12 |
mask-for-30-days process. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Does anybody have any objections to me doing this? (I'll wait a week |
| 15 |
from now before taking any actions.) |
