remove parameter-gui? #5706

Open tjhei opened 4 months ago

tjhei commented 4 months ago

I vote to remove cmake support for the QT based parameter GUI https://github.com/dealii/parameter_gui. Or is anyone using it?

bangerth commented 4 months ago

I thought I saw someone use it recently (on a Zoom call?). Isn't this a separate program now?

bangerth commented 4 months ago

In other words, what would we have to remove?

I don't think it's an issue that bothers me too much. Take a poll tomorrow morning!

tjhei commented 4 months ago

poll results: nobody uses the parameter gui.

see my comment in #5735. What you are proposing is removing the configuration of ASPECT-GUI as part of ASPECT build. ASPECT-GUI works just fine separately.
