gtkhtml4.0 package

Ubuntu 16.04 Support

Asked by Daniel Wilson

Is this package likely to be available on the Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus) repositories anytime soon? If not, is it safe to download the .deb file and install it manually?

Says its depreciated due to:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=797429

The gtkhtml module is deprecated and should not be used.
Please remove it from the archive.
It has no reverse dependencies in testing (once evolution-rss 0.3.95-3
reaches testing atleast).
In unstable there is one reverse dependency still, which will
be fixed once there's someone interested in maintaining the
package and updating it to a current upstream release.

It's dead. I suggest you find an alternative.

Can you help with this problem?
