apparently an installation problem?

@richfitz what's the maintenance status of rrlite? 😸

[richfitz]

I have/had a bit of a pr that fixed some of this a while ago, but the upstream project has stalled and it never worked well on windows I believe...

[maelle]

Is this package still used? Do you think we should try to get more contributors to it, or should we archive it? Thank you!

[richfitz]

I don't think anyone has used it in a long time, and I don't think it ever worked on Windows, but I might be able to get it working again at some point. It would be december at the earliest though!

[maelle]

@richfitz do you use it? Thank you in any case!

[richfitz]

No, I don't! The lack of windows support and meant I never really found a good use for this, and ended up developing thor instead

[maelle]

So why not archive it? Do you expect there are still users of this package?
