[Bug 1695928] Re: Please remove obsolete UOA packages

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu Online Accounts is no longer maintained. There is an alternative,
  GNOME Online Accounts for the GNOME desktop.
  
  Also, Unity's Online Accounts settings panel does not currently work
  without oxide-qt but oxide-qt will be removed from Ubuntu 17.10.
  
  Please remove these source packages and their binaries:
  =============

  gnome-control-center-signon

  storage-provider-webdav

  By the way, gnome-control-center-signon fails to build with vala 0.36:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/324396241/buildlog_ubuntu-artful-amd64.gnome-control-center-signon_0.1.9+16.10.20160825-0ubuntu1~ubuntu17.10.1_BUILDING.txt.gz

  Other Notes
  -----------
  The Shotwell suggests have been dropped in artful-proposed. Shotwell is temporarily stuck in -proposed because of an autopkgtest issue https://bugzilla.gnome.org/781802
  
  Kubuntu still uses signon-ui.
