I am orphaning giada, a music production tool, which I have maintained
for some time after picking it up when it was orphaned in the past. I am
also orphaning geompp, a header-only library that is currently used only
by giada.
The giada package is in good condition, although it is somewhat less
useful than the Flathub version because it has VST3 support stripped
out. See spec file comments and previous discussions on the legal
mailing list for context on this.
The latest version of giada temporarily bundles an unreleased version of
FLTK, which I could handle in accordance with guidelines, although it is
tedious since the dependency is large and has its own possibly-bundled
dependencies.
However, the latest version also now has a hard dependency on JUCE,
which itself bundles the VST3 SDK. It might be possible to continue
packaging giada by bundling a version of JUCE with VST3 support removed
(before uploading to the lookaside cache), but I don’t personally want
to go to such lengths for this package.
