** Description changed:

  KSnapshot was rewritten for Qt5. So it's not needed any longer in
  Xenial. It's redunant now. Also it hasn't stepped up in version with
  regards to Wily [1].
  
  Please remove from archive/KDE-meta – (possibly create an wrapper to
  point at the replacement?). Not having looked into the libkipi11-
  dependencies yet (rdepends?).
  
  The successor is called KDE-Spectacle [2]
  
  It has some pretty new features [3] and fits well into the new KDE-5
  Ecosystem.
  
+ Aslo this consideration will help to the ease to maintain this release
+ for another 5 years.
+ 
  Thanks for helping to make Kubuntu better every day.
