** Description changed:

- As reported at https://bugs.debian.org/790218 the Debian developers
- would like to remove python-webkit from the repositories because it uses
- libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 which is no longer maintained.
+ Lernid is unmaintained and should be removed from Ubuntu until someone
+ wants to resurrect it.
+ 
+ It depends on python-webkit which I think we want to try to remove this
+ year.
+ 
+ It is set up as a frontend for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom
+ but that wiki page says "As of 2014 the Ubuntu Classroom project is no longer active."
+ 
+ Upon first launch, it offers to connect via IRC to either #ubuntu-
+ classroom or the Spanish equivalent. After connecting, it opens the
+ above wiki page. There is a tab for a terminal and a tab for a calendar
+ but the calendar doesn't show any events.
+ 
+ Original bug report
+ ===================
+ As reported at https://bugs.debian.org/790218 the Debian developers would like to remove python-webkit from the repositories because it uses libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 which is no longer maintained.
  
  The developers recommend you port lernid to GTK3 and then build against
  gir1.2-webkitgtk-3.0, or preferably gir1.2-webkit2-4.0.
  
  There's some additional info at https://bugs.debian.org/749258
