[Bug 1771025] Re: Please remove gnome-sharp2 from Ubuntu

[Jeremy Bicha]

** Description changed:

  libgnome has been removed from Debian Testing and will not be included
  in the Debian 10 "Buster" release. We should do the same. If we do it
  now, maybe some projects will do the needed porting work away from
  libgnome (porting to gtk3 is probably needed) in time for Ubuntu 20.04
  LTS or Debian 10. Users who are hurt by these removals can keep using
  Ubuntu 18.04 LTS for a few years.
  
  A major rdepends is gnome-sharp2 (This is Mono stuff). The replacement
  is gtk-sharp3.
+ 
+ gnome-sharp2 has been removed from Debian now. There are a few Ubuntu-
+ specific reverse dependencies and a few packages have Ubuntu changes so
+ this will need a bit of manual cleanup from the Ubuntu Archive team.
  
  $ reverse-depends src:gnome-sharp2
