[Bug 1496227] [NEW] Remove glade-3 from Archive, 15.10+

 

Public bug reported:

With Quickly removed per bug 1494345 there are no Reverse Dependencies
on glade-3.

Source package:  glade-3
Binary packages:  glade-gnome glade-gtk2 libgladeui-1-11 libgladeui-1-dev

There is a suggests from libglade2-dev (not being removed) -> glade-
gnome but this is also broken in Debian
-https://packages.debian.org/sid/libglade2-dev

These packages appear to have been removed from Debian for quite some time, glade-gnome is currently only found in oldoldstable.
(The one exception is https://packages.debian.org/sid/libgladeui-1-dev which I don't really understand)

There appears to be no future updates coming -
https://git.gnome.org/browse/glade/?h=glade-3-8

It was previously removed in 2011 but added back to keep support for
create/editing gtk2 uis - also due to Quickly, per bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glade-3/+bug/825070.   I don't
believe it's worth keeping in 2015.
