[Bug 1577219] Re: No support for Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial

 

I was the previous maintainer of the project and it was about four years
ago. Since then "no one has cared". My personal opinion is that the
whole project is quite outdated and I am surprised some screenlets still
work and that some people use them.

To be constructive, you may try if 14.04 (or later) Screenlets package
works on 16.04, if you install it by force. If it kind of works, maybe
we can create a new package, but if it needs too much work, I won't be
able to help. When I started maintaining the project and did some
rewrites and bug fixes etc and created a PPA for individual Screenlets,
I presumed some people will join the development. But it seems that it
wasn't that important or interesting project, so I got tired and found
other things to take care of.

If someone wants to take up the development, I can consult as much as it
is needed though.
