[Bug 1695928] Re: Please remove obsolete UOA packages

[Jeremy Bicha]

Khurshid and Mardy, thank you very much for your feedback.

libaccounts-glib, libsignon-glib, signon, signon-plugin-oauth, signon-
plugin-password, telepathy-accounts-glib (and a few more with more
obvious K sounding names) are being kept because they are used in KDE
Plasma.

Khurshid, is that sufficient for what you need? Or do you also need
account-plugins?

Mardy, I don't think there's a problem with ubports maintained stuff re-
entering Ubuntu if it's maintained. It looks to me like ubports is
currently focused on Xenial and PPAs which is a good approach too.

The list of Unity8 related removals is much longer (see xnox's estimate
in his merge proposal). This bug focuses on UOA stuff which does end up
including Unity8 too.
