@dreieck: Fair enough.

Dear @yochananmarqos,

even software that is no longer maintained upstream still can serve a purpose.

What part of THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER BEING MAINTAINED did you not notice?

No part I did not notice:
I was totally aware that upstream has stopped development. This alone does not cut off the usefullness of the software.

Actually, there is some usefulness in this software!, since it allows to easily browse the /EFI partition and boot ISO images. The latter is a functionality which I could not accomplish with any other bootloader out there (grub2 has dropped that functionality).

Regards!

What was the point of adding a dead project to the AUR? What part of THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER BEING MAINTAINED did you not notice?
