Bug Description

It's only in Ubuntu.

Upstream hasn't made a release since 2012, no one is maintaining it - https://github.com/labyrinth-team/labyrinth

Reviews show people have lost data by using it.

It uses outdated tech that we hope to remove gnome-python - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/labyrinth/+bug/1739800

If anyone is interested in maintaining it, I can give them access and point to what's what.

I tried some years back to migrate it to GTK3 and pygobject, but I got stuck on this issue:

Sorry, what needs fixing is over my head. Btw, You're the most responsive non-maintainer ever :).

What are your thoughts on if it should stay in the Ubuntu archive? (If not new maintainer comes along, etc)

Since no one stood up to maintain this package, I just went ahead and removed it. If anyone wants to pick it up we can re-add it for the next cycle.
