[Erich Eickmeyer <2077227@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jamin hasn't seen any development since some Czech translations were
added in 2015 [1] and is suffering bit rot. As such, we removed it from
Ubuntu Studio's default installation in 2021[2]. Additionally, it fails
to build from source using GCC-14[3], which will likely cause it to be
removed from Ubuntu and Debian in the very near future.

Based on all of this, it is dead upstream and the author has lost
interest in developing it. I suggest finding alternatives and cease
depending on it in your workflow.
