[SOLVED] Is Pairs still available?

Sat Nov 12, 2016 1:13 am
I'm wondering what happened to Pairs. It's still shown on the KDE site. This used to be packaged in Ubuntu, but hasn't been shipped since 13.10. It's also not available in Arch Linux.

Pairs has been dropped from KDE Applications in 15.08, i.e. one and a half years ago.

IIRC, the maintainer/developer joined the gcompris project and didn't want to continue working on pairs.

You can of course still download the source code and compile it yourself. The last version is still KDE4 based though (which doesn't mean you cannot run/use it in Plasma5, but you need the corresponding KDE4 libs installed).

Thank you to you both. @wolfi323, I guess this means that the page mentioned above probably needs to be deleted then. Cheers.
