From official GNOME docs:

"Attention: PyGTK 2.24 will be the last release in the PyGTK series and will support the full GTK-2-24 API. PyGTK should not be used for new projects and existing PyGTK applications are recommended to be ported to PyGObject. See here for more information."

https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGTK/WhatsNew224

Please stop asking me to update this package. I only "keep" it, so that it is not messed with by others, as some older applications still rely on it to function.

Thank you.

Adopted. I don't think there are any major changes to be made, but I'll keep track of this package for anything that needs to be fixed.

I think the arch should be updated to 'any', since it's a Python library. I'll do that soon. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Python_package_guidelines

You should update the upstream URL to that link, since the current one (which points to pygobject) is confusing at best...

Never mind on my last comment. I'm using Artix, not Arch, which is why I didn't see it in the main repos.

python2-cairo (a listed dep) is no longer in AUR. That leaves it so pygtk can't be built.

An identical replacement for fslint-gui is czkawka-gui-bin https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/czkawka-gui-bin/ which does not need pygtk.
