FWIW, https://github.com/deniskropp/DirectFB is the new location of the
upstream repository. I see that you opened an issue there, so you're
already aware. The last commit is from October 2015.

I guess many other projects in OE-Corew have seen much less activity. So
what's the real reason for this proposal? Failing update scripts?

Regards,
Andreas
