[Pkg-directfb-devel] Removing dfb++ and fusionsound?

Hello,

dfb++ and fusionsound have been orphaned for more than a year now
without nobody picking them up. They are both libraries, said to be part
of the directfb suite. However, they’ve not been adopted by the DirectFB
Maintainers, and additionally they have no reverse dependencies in Debian.

Both are failing to build against directfb 1.2.0 (#519307, #519312). I’d
like to hear the opinion of the DirectFB Maintainers about the relevance
of these packages, and their willingness to adopt them.

But since they have no reverse dependencies, maybe a plain removal is a
better option? I’ll do that in a week unless somebody objects or an
offer for maintenance is received.

Thanks,
