2017-12-05 18:03:41 Jeremy Bícha description system-config-kickstart is one of 3 packages in main keeping source pygtk in main. (The other two are ibus-sunpinyin and python-pyperclip, an OpenStack-related package.) pygtk has been unmaintained upstream since around 2011. The way forward is to port system-config-kickstart to use GObject Introspection bindings. This also requires porting to GTK3. For more information on GObject Introspection see: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GObjectIntrospection https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGObject system-config-kickstart and ibus-sunpinyin are the only packages keeping pygtk2 in Ubuntu main. pygtk has been unmaintained upstream since around 2011.
