A dead project that depends on another dead project

Hi,

I only wasted my time just now to find out how exactly do you plan to offer this project for people (since you are replying to issues) when it depends on https://github.com/Skycoder42/qdep which is marked as "read only" and you explicitly stated inside issues that you do not want to maintain it anymore.

Aside from that, it is clear that a sheer amount of work has been input into this and the other library, including the documentation. I can say kudos on that, but... they are impossible to use.

Thanks,

All the best

Yes, that is true. However, I have moved one from Qt to other ecosystems and as live changes, there is less and less time for coding in between, so sadly, I do not have the time to maintain this or the other projects.

Regarding qdep: You could just remove the qdep dependencies, check which repos they originally pointed to and manually add them to a fork, for example via git submodules. They are only used at a few distinct places, so fixing up includes should be doable.

Thanks for your kind words.
