I can't see why removing an orphaned package that has no RC bugs, and let's say, even no important bugs, and which is stable in the sense that there's no new upstream version (e.g. an established font), from testing makes testing's quality better. What about a hypothetical package that has no bugs at all, but some users according to popcon? Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ. Zürich Debian Developer
