Add tex@ to the bug although I am not sure whether if I can be of any = help as I do not use it. And about why it is in the tree is a different question. People take = over maintainership and then also release their maintainership when that = tool is no longer of their interest. When a port goes back to the pool = it's sometimes unmaintained and over the time it's dependencies changes = which require more recent versions of that. So in short we cannot blame = anyone for why it is in the tree.
