Summary

owncloud/gallery has been archived and is no longer maintained. This updates the documentation accordingly.

Note: the gallery app was already deprecated in ownCloud Server 10.3 (superseded by the Files Media Viewer app), so the existing references were already deprecation notices. This PR updates them to also reflect that the app is now archived/unmaintained, and removes dead assets.

Changes

  • modules/admin_manual/pages/installation/apps_supported.adoc — add a note that Gallery and Files VideoPlayer are deprecated, archived, and no longer maintained.
  • modules/classic_ui/pages/apps/media_viewer_app.adoc — note that the replaced apps are no longer maintained.
  • modules/classic_ui/images/gallery-1.png, gallery-2.png — removed; these images were orphaned (no page referenced them).

Notes / out of scope

  • Historical release notes in docs-main (server_release_notes.adoc) that document the 10.3 Gallery→Media Viewer transition are intentionally left unchanged — they are accurate historical records.
  • The marketplace.owncloud.com/apps/gallery links were not touched: the ownCloud Marketplace links appear to be broadly dead now (even the current files_mediaviewer link 404s), which is a separate, pre-existing issue.

(owncloud/gallery#880). The app was already deprecated in server 10.3
in favor of the Files Media Viewer app.

- Note that Gallery and Files VideoPlayer are archived/unmaintained in
  the supported-apps list and the Media Viewer app page
- Remove the orphaned gallery-1.png / gallery-2.png images (no page
  referenced them)

LGTM — docs-only, coherent. Self-authored so recording review only (no self-merge).

  • Marks Gallery + Files VideoPlayer as deprecated/archived/unmaintained in apps_supported.adoc and updates the Media Viewer page's {description} to match. Consistent messaging, points users to the Media Viewer app.
  • No dangling xref introduced (the Media Viewer page already existed; only prose + 2 gallery images touched). CI green.
