New plugin: jhbuild
Metadata
Current evaluation
PR #812 (LXC-based jhbuild plugin by attente, 2016) was closed unmerged in Nov 2016, superseded by #924, which in turn was replaced by the Bubblewrap-free rewrite merged as #1298 (commit f5a51ee09); plugin later removed in #2371.
Resolution: closed superseded
Reason: The author closed it stating it was 'Superceded by snapcore/snapcraft#924' (LXC-free version); that attempt was itself closed and the plugin ultimately landed via merged PR #1298 (commit f5a51ee09).
