The big problem with this one is that it's dead upstream (since 2006!) and stuck at KDE 3 (which also implies that its kipi-plugins support no longer works because we ship only the KDE 4 kipi-plugins these days, as all the other stuff using the Kipi framework has moved on to KDE 4). And it's not like its featureset is unique (it's just an image viewer). I'd recommend that users of ShowImg migrate to Gwenview or some other actively maintained image viewer.
This sounds like it should have been retired instead of only orphaned. Do you happen to know, why it wasn't retired?
