Comment 2 for bug 912884

In the past I cared for iTalc in Ubuntu, investing considerable time working on wrappers, integration with LTSP and contributing to the upstream code. For 12.04 Edubuntu will no longer ship iTalc as it's been a pain to work with over the past few years.

Instead we'll be replacing it with Epoptes (Linux only so won't quite work for you) and will stop maintaining iTalc outside of security bugfixes for existing version of Edubuntu.

I just had a quick look at the state of iTalc in Debian and we're still in sync with them as they don't seem to have italc2 in their repository. Once they do, I'm happy to drop all my changes on Ubuntu's iTalc and import the package from Debian.

This means I won't take the time to package iTalc 2 myself but am happy to have it imported from Debian.
I highly suggest filing a similar bug report against Debian.

Thanks
