So since there it seems there is still a need for tpb, albeit
temporarily, Kevin, will you be orphaning it, or EOLing it?
I think it's a bit late in the cycle to be orphaning it.
How about some folks who care take it over now, and we look at
orphaning it in the f11 cycle?
It has two outstanding bugs:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=317401
Brightness display increments too large on some displays
and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=441498
tpb generated coredump
So, who wants it? Feel free to mail me or reply to this thread and I
will release it for you.
