Details

Description:

The upstream URL and source code moved from SourceForge to mnim.org in 2015, might want to update the URL at the very least.
http://galculator.mnim.org/

Without digging into the code, I find it odd it depends on both gtk2 and gtk3. It's one or the other normally.

Additional info:

It's dead:
https://github.com/galculator/galculator/issues/37

Maybe drop it to the AUR?
This task depends upon

It is a split package. So you can either install it for gtk2 or 3. Since it is a simple calculator app and still working, why bother?

Why this application is not on the GTK 2 EOL Todo List is curious as well.

Oops, yeah I missed the split package. Too bad one can't edit the report. Either way, it hasn't been updated since 2015 and at least the Gtk 2 portion should be dropped.
