+I can confirm this :
+
+I know quite well hugin (and panotools) and enblend : I've built nearly
+a hundred of panoramas with this tools for 6 years ...
+
+Enblend is only required by hugin which automatically creates the
+command line to use it.
+Sophie confirms that nothing else requires enblend !
+
+Enblend is useless without a program that has stiched photos before
+enblend itself blends them into one.
+Enblend is hard to use by writing manually its command line...
+(better let hugin do that)
+
+It has no opensource GUI for linux and can't be applied to the
+panoramas built with the deprecated "Panorama Tools Plugin" for Gimp or
+with the pandora plugin for gimp (that has poor ability)
+
+There's no reason to keep enblend alone after hugin has been removed (as
+I suggested april 21st)
+(same for libpano and libpano-tools that can be safely removed)
