While iterating over all the /xorg/ repos to update their READMEs
(which I think I've now finished - let me know if you spot one I missed),
I noticed a few more to consider archiving:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/compiz
- This is a long abandoned repo, not actual upstream, right?
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/intel-gen4asm
- Last commit was to declare the repo DEPRECATED as it folded into
the gpu-tools repo instead.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/lbxproxy
- This can't be built without liblbxutil which is already archived.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/makepsres
- leftover bit of DPS that never even got a Makefile created
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/mkcfm
- MAINTAINERS file says "Obsolete - CID font support has been dropped"
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/proxymngr
- This can't be built without lbxproxy (see above)
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xrx
- All major browsers have dropped NSAPI plugin support now
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xsetmode
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xsetpointer
- The READMEs explain why these are useless now
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xtrap
- See https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-June/036131.html
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-imstt
- Last commit is "Fail configure. This driver is unmaintained" 8 years ago
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/font/bitstream-speedo
-Speedo is listed on https://www.x.org/wiki/DeprecatedInX11R7/ as not
supported in modular builds. The code was deleted from libXfont in 2009.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libxkbcommon
- Last commit is notice of moving to github 5 years ago
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libxcwm
- Is anyone using this? No commits in 6 years...
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/xmkmf
- Last commit was 12 years ago: "xmkmf support was moved to imake package."
