Bug Description

Pencil is pretty much dead and was since 2009. On Ubuntu 14.04 there are a lot of stuff that doesn't work.

There is a fork of Pencil that is constant development named "Pencil2D" here http://www.pencil2d.org/pencil2d/
and the git repository is here https://github.com/pencil2d/pencil

can this package be updated to Pencil2D?

Now that pencil2d is in Debian, the auto-syncing in Ubuntu is a matter of
hours, or at the worst a day.
The next step is to ask the edubuntu people to change its seed and then
upload pencil as a dummy package. I'm going to do so.

changing the seeds: done (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/edubuntu.utopic/revision/888)

Now I look forward to upload pencil as a transitional package.

I'm very well aware of it, but I'm now in the process of removing the old pencil.
