I made a list of packages orphaned more than one year ago together with some information like popcon stats and reverse dependencies.
You can find it at http://people.debian.org/~djpig/oldorphanages Based on this list and further investigations I propose to remove the following packages. I have been very aggressively while preparing that list. Many of these don't have any bugs and probably will never cause any as they are simply not used... But lets remove them now if someone really needs them he has time enough until etch to reintroduce them (especially with current NEW speeds :) If noone objects I will post the list debian-devel in a few days and reassign the bugs another week or so later... race, orphaned 376 days ago, about 3 years old, new upstream releases not uploaded, medium install base, "only a game" trustees, orphaned 379 days ago, according to maintainer upstream dead, removal already suggested one year ago, very small install base ptknettools, orphaned 405 days ago, Debian native, 5 years old, many alternatives to these programs AFAIK, very small install base mp3kult, orphaned 443 days ago, upstream about 3 years old, small install base gpppkill, orphaned 458 days ago, upstream about 3 years old, very small install base libffm, orphaned 466 days ago, upstream about 5 years old, very specialised package (optimised math routines for DEC Alpha), so almost no install base stklos, orphaned 468 days ago, FTBFS, several releases behind upstream, very small install base tkworld, orphaned 500 days ago, upstream 5 years old, very small install base xbmbrowser, orphaned 513 days ago, upstream 10 years old, small install base, probably many alternatives splitdigest, orphaned 513 days ago, upstream 7 years old, small install base xasteroids, orphaned 513 days ago, upstream 12 years old (what about a new archive at museum.debian.org? ;)), small install base, "only a game", probably many alternatives nqxml, orphaned 540 days ago, upstream 3 years old, alternatives available, very small install base rubymagick, orphaned 540 days ago, upstream 4 years old, probably obsoleted by librmagick-ruby, very small install base gfpoken, orphaned 584 days ago, upstream 5 years old, alternatives available, small install base, "only a game" sel, orphaned 637 days ago, upstream 4 years old, many alternatives available, very small install base jitterbug, orphaned 657 days ago, upstream 6 years old, alternatives available, very small install base meshio, orphaned 657 days ago, upstream 4 years old, probably alternatives available, very small install base [rest of the list tomorrow, longer than I expected :)] Gruesse, -- Frank Lichtenheld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www: http://www.djpig.de/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
