Gnome Commander Issues

Greetings,

Recently I noticed that gnome-commander and some other packages has been removed from the official repository of pacman.

I am curious why this particular package have been removed.

Best regards,
F.Borges

Dropped to AUR because the TU no longer wanted to maintain it: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-commander/

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Re: Gnome Commander Issues

gnome-commander was dropped because it uses deprecated libraries:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=589069
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=589072

We dropped several old GNOME 2.x libraries from extra, so gnome-commander was removed in the process.

Re: Gnome Commander Issues

I compiled for me today but it installs a lot of dependencies. I use MATE if that is of any importance.
