Description nikos papadopoulos 2015-05-28 13:10:47 CEST

Description of problem:
Comix is a good comics viewer (.cbr files, etc),
but it has been pretty much abandoned
(last release was in 2009)

MComix is a fork o Comix.
It has a steady development (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mcomix/files/?source=navbar),
bug fixes, more options and tools.

I downloaded and ran the windows version, under wine. It looks and works ok.

MComix is already included in Mageia 5 (but it was not packaged for Mageia 4 indeed).
Shlomi maintains both MComix and Comix, I'll let him decide whether he wants to have mcomix obsolete comix, or keep both.

If Shlomi wants to keep both packages, then this bug can be closed as a duplicate of bug 14105.

Resolving as duplicate indeed. I'll keep both packages for the time being.
