Are you 100% certain that easygui is not being maintained any more? If
so, it's rather sudden; the latest released version is "version 0.85
(2009-01-16)" ... see
 http://easygui.sourceforge.net/download/easygui_v0.85.html

Did you mistake the OP for the author/maintainer??

Has the OP tried to contact the author/maintainer of easygui [the
usually-recommended approach to problems with not-widely-used third-
party modules]?

Don't you think the author/maintainer might like to be consulted
before you incite an OP to claim-jump his package name on PyPI?
