1 Hi list,
2
3 I'd like to give up maintenance of
4
5 dev-libs/libratbag
6
7 due to the software now depending on libsystemd[1] which I do not have
8 the tiniest interest to infect my systems with.
9
10 Unfortunately upstream refuses to make libsystemd optional because they
11 don't wanna use dbus directly but rather prefer a useless additional
12 layer for that (libsystemd).
13
14 If nobody picks it up I either gonna put it on maintainer-needed in
15 about 30 days or (if QA prefers that) lastrite it entirely.
16
17 Kind regards
18 Lars
