Description Tom Henderson 2018-08-15 16:35:39 UTC

The 'show last packets' plugin depends on python-kiwi package which has not been updated for GTK+3.  We suggest to refactor it to avoid kiwi if kiwi does not soon get an update.

"Last packets" is a plugin that displays a sample of some packets passing through a node in a list widget.  Gustavo suggests to convert that code to use a Gtk.ListView directly, instead of the kiwi api (which is built on top of Gtk.ListView, but is simpler to program).
