NuGet Package Deprecation #65

Open BernhardMaier opened 4 months ago

BernhardMaier commented 4 months ago

Today we discovered that the NuGet package has been marked as “deprecated” on nuget.org and is no longer listed there. This means that we are currently unable to update the NuGet packages in our application.

Are there any reasons why the package is no longer maintained?

That would be indeed interesting. What is the status?

JeffreyHiscox commented 3 months ago

Also curious about this?

BernhardMaier commented 3 months ago

We found out that the repo owner Retired from open-source and may not responde to our questions in this issue: grafik

That's very sad, @Eastrall. Can we support you in maintaining this package in any way?

nielsNocore commented 2 months ago

did anyone have a solution for this, an alternatives?

BernhardMaier commented 2 months ago

We found two possible alternatives that seem to be "clones" of Eastralls package or at least are based on it:

Both have almost the same readme as Eastralls and the first package also points to Eastralls repository. We haven't changed our dependencies or tested these packages yet, but maybe it's a quick and sufficient solution for you and you can take a look at them.

In the long term, an official fork of Eastrall's package or becoming a maintainer would be the best solutions, also in order to continue his work in a sustainable and worthy manner.

@BernhardMaier thankyou for your answer,
