Hi all,

Post by Pacho Ramos
# Unmaintained, upstream dead, fails to build (#650084). Removal in a month.
sys-power/suspend

1. It it maintaned and works fine except for splashutils support
which is going to be treecleaned. It doesn't matter if upstream is
active or not if a software works.

2. The mentioned bug is not a valid reason because it is manifested
only with splashutils support enabled.

3. I revbumped suspend to drop fbsplash support.

4. Package mask is dropped.

Best regards,
Andrew Savchenko
