stepbill.app homepage does not work

[Lyn Perrine]

To reproduce on vivid install stepbill.app or search for it in synaptic or end up running apt-cache show stepbill.app and try to open the link to the homepage. The homepage link will not resolve a dns name for this homepage.

Description: Ubuntu 15.04

I expected the homepage to take me to a homepage for stepbill.app. Instead I did not get directed to any website.

Specifically http://www.linuks.mine.nu/stepbill/ and the whole linuxs.mine.nu domain does not seems to be online anymore.

Thanks for reporting.

Indeed the homepage links fails to load.

Since Ubuntu has synced this package from Debian, I tried checking for a newer version there, or possibly forward the bug report. However, it looks like the package has been removed from Debian [1], see [2] for more information on why. :/

This bug report is no longer valid as the stepbill.app is no longer included in any currently supported release of Ubuntu. Launchpad shows that the Wily release was the latest Ubuntu version to include the stepbill.app.
