What happened to xview?

[mahdi]

I can't find any reference (or I'm just not digging far enough) but x11-libs/xview no longer exists in portage. Is this intentional or something else?

Any suggestions on a similar package? I use gqview mostly but for quickly opening one image xview was the best option.

According to the changelog it was consigned to the ebuild graveyard aboot 3 weeks ago.

You can grab what you need from sources.gentoo.org above and keep it in an overlay if you want, but I use media-gfx/feh for exactly this and am very pleased with it.

Thanks Hopeless, no need to keep a dead app around when there are replacements.
Looks like feh does the job, thanks again!
