[Bug 1695928] Re: Please remove obsolete UOA packages

[Jeremy Bicha]

Khurshi, thanks for your comment.

Shotwell was stuck on an old git snapshot for over a year (LP: #1581180)
because the UOA support was unmaintained and no one had the time or
ability to forward-port that support. That support has now been removed
and we'll finally get a supportable version of Shotwell in Ubuntu 17.10.

Empathy's UOA support was dropped about two months ago from 17.10.

Full removal of UOA means removal of Unity8. It does not mean removal of
Unity 7. The online support for some of the dash "lenses" has already
been removed as part of this effort.

This request is about removal, not demotion to universe.

"Ubuntu Online Accounts is no longer maintained. There is an
alternative, GNOME Online Accounts"
