Porting to gtk-sharp 3?
ikelos opened this issue · 2 comments
gtk-sharp-2 isn't really looked after and my current operating system is trying to get rid of it. I realize it won't be a small task, but this is probably still one of the fastest and most useful hex editors out there. Are there any plans for porting it to gtk-sharp-3 at all?

gtk-sharp 3 is a dead project too (it died at the end of 2016 and gets 1-4 commits per year since then, mostly just documentation / unrelated changes, no major fixes or improvements):

This is the most popular and maintained fork with tons of fixes:
bless is about to be removed from Debian testing due to its dependency on gtk-sharp 2. I do not think it has a chance to stay in the next Debian release if it is not ported to GtkSharp. I would volunteer to update the packaging but for that to happen, somebody needs to do the actual porting.
