Package: cherrytree

Hello,
it looks like the package "cherrytree" is missing from Beowulf, even
though it was present in Ascii and IS present in Chimaera

https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html?c=package&q=cherrytree

Per https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=cherrytree the package
was not in Debian's buster, hence not in Devuan's beowulf.

Hope this helps,

Hi Joril,

On a further note to Olaf’s comment, looking at the Debian bugs for cherrytree you can find the reason for removal was due to python2. The more recent version was rewritten in C++ and is therefore back in the Debian package archive.
