FSlint packaging

Where did FSLint go? I installed it a decade ago and have been faithfully upgrading my fedora instance all this time. Go to use it today, and it’s icon shows up in gnome’s app list but I click it and it never says hello.

I run from cli and see some glade/gtk dependacy is missing.

I tried using a “snap version” of it I found somewhere but that runs like crap, font’s render as boxes.

I uninstall my old version with dnf, and go to reinstall it and its not in the repo, no results for dnf search fslint dnf search fs-lint, or dnf whatprovides ‘*/fslint’

What gives? It was such a simple useful tool. Where did it go? Where’s the right place to go for a log of what happened/why it was removed?

Package is retired https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/fslint (looks like upstream also inactive as well)
