Sorry, but I find this a non-argument. https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/fortune-mod doesn't indicate it was a maintenance burden at all and the removal of the binary package solved* a non-Release Critical (severity=normal : https://bugs.debian.org/904882) bug. This discussion and all the people looking up this package and the time and (mental) energy spend on this issue**, is also NOT spend on actual RC bugs. > I suspect there is also a slight difference of understanding of the merits > of free speech on either side of the Atlantic: it's a cultural thing and I > suspect I tend to the European side here :) I'm European and I'm very much on the Free Speech side. *) Incorrectly, IMO. The request was for a clearer name of the package. **) I've rewritten this reply several times and in the end removed large parts of it. And it's costing me quite some time and energy NOT to respond to several posts in this thread. Time and energy which could have been spend on more useful/productive things.
