- Description:
- Skencil is an interactive vector drawing program for X (similar to XFig
or tgif). It is written almost completely in Python, an object oriented
interpreted programming language.
This is a stable release. It is quite featureful and usable, but there
are still things missing that I want in a 1.0 release, hence the low
version number.
Skencil was originally named "Sketch" and the name "Sketch" is still
used is many places.

graphics/skencil: mark deprecated
This is quite old project being abandoned: last release was in year 2010. It's
code base relying on stale libraries and in fact it was removed from most of
the distributions. Users should switch to graphics/inkscape or another mature
vector editor. There is also Skencil's fork - sK1 [1] that is actively
developing, but that we have not in ports tree yet. There is also some story
behind the fork [2].
Not sure if this a problem of this app in gnome3 environment, or some general
failure, I wasn't able to add simple text label to the canvas getting this
everywhere:
"""
EditSelection.GetObjectMethod: editor <Sketch.Graphics.selection.EditorWrapper
instance at 0x80a128560> is not compatible
with class skencil.Sketch.Graphics.text.CommonTextEditor
"""
Mark this deprecated and set expiration date to 2015-08-08.

- Use only Python 2.4 or below, since 2.5 crashes or produces memory warnnings.
- Using a non default Python version doesn't work on pointyhat/TB (because of
dependencies), so mark as appropiate in that case.
