Hi, as a maintainer of flex-old package I'm considering requesting
removing it as obsolete and unmaintained version of flex.  The
claws-mail Build-Depends on flex-old optionally. Please build the
package only against current flex by removing references to flex-old
package such as changed in the following patch.
