Public bug reported:
tropic-look is an Ubuntu-specific package that hasn't been updated in
Ubuntu since 2007. Please remove it from resolute.
It consists of these packages:
* tropic-look - metapackage for everything
* tropic-gdm-theme - a theme for GDM 2
* tropic-session-splashes - a single small png
* tropic-theme - GTK2 and metacity theme
* tropic-wallpapers - a single 1600x1200 wallpaper
tropic-gdm-theme hasn't worked in Ubuntu for 15 years LP: #442408
I guess the session splash was shown long ago while waiting for login to
complete.
tropic-theme isn't useful since people like consistency across apps and
there aren't many gtk2 apps left.
That leaves a single wallpaper which isn't worth keeping as a .deb
I am subscribing Daniel to this bug since he did all the uploads, but he
hasn't been active in Ubuntu development for years.
