I can't see any reason why these packages should be kept in our repo: it's an unmaintained project, the last version released 6 years ago, and no other packages use it from official repositories, so I think it's completely useless nowadays.

I recommend to move these packages to AUR:
- galago-daemon
- libgalago
- libgalago-gtk
- python2-galago
- python-galago (it should be replaced already by python2-galago)
- python-galago-gtk
This task depends upon

Do they still work?

Galago requires explicit support from applications. So even if the libraries and the daemon work (not tested), you can't use it, because there are no applications in official repositories or AUR that support it.
