Bug Description

Quarry in Ubuntu is very old and buggy - 0.2 version was released 7 years ago (on 2006) :(

Development of quarry has been taken over here: https://gitorious.org/quarry/pages/Home

Latest Quarry code from https://gitorious.org/quarry/quarry-buildfixes builds fine - I've created packaging recipe, see https://code.launchpad.net/~quarry-team/+recipe/quarry-git

Quarry 0.3.0.1 packages for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and newer are in official Ubuntu/Baltix Linux OS repository - ppa:baltix-members , see
https://launchpad.net/~baltix-members/+archive/ppa

Would be nice if the current stable version 0.3.0.1 (released on 2011) could be included into Ubuntu.
The new upstream developer Ethan Baldridge has been very cooperative in Debian and Ubuntu bug reports about quarry.

Removed from Debian because it is dead upstream and depends on GTK2: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1047560

Closing as Won't Fix here accordingly.
