- The latest stable release 0.11.0 does not support python 2.x and
relies on an outdated Pillow which has several vulnerabilities
- The latest beta release 0.13.0-beta2 supports python 3.x and is
packageable but segfaults
- I am the only maintainer and not willing to put further effort into it.
The original developer has abandoned this package but some Ubuntu
developers have forked it and maintain it. This means the tests now
work and the package supports Python 3.
The download has been broken for eons, and the latest
version (4.1.1) has switched to Snap instead of a tarball.
Considering the fact that it hasn't been updated and no one's
complained, I'd say this is ripe for removal.
