This package should be removed from wheezy too. Please let me know if I need a seperate bug for wheezy, for now reusing the same bug for sid and testing. This package was removed from Jessie and Stretch in the latest point release. For more additional discussion see: http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017 https://bugs.debian.org/881097 https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts/2017/12/msg00009.html I note that initially there was some disgreement as to if this package should be removed or not from Wheezy. However I believe the consensus now is that it should get removed. Especially as it has been removed from Jessie and Stretch. -- Brian May <[email protected]>
