Elvis is indeed no longer in hamm. How do I get elvis completely removed from the bug tracking system (which has my email address from a couple of years ago per the old stable version of elvis), and listed as orphined, redundant, with an upstream maintainer that ignores us completely? I don't want it in Debian anymore (I'm not the only Debian person to be ignored by the author) and I don't want to have anything to do with elvis ever again. Shall I post a bug against ftp.debian.org for stable (since it is not DFSG free in stable either) to have it completely removed? -Erik -- Erik B.
