Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
The package xwine should be removed from both lenny and sid.
The main reason for this is that the program is simply obsolete:
* It configures /etc/wine/config + ~/.wine/config.
* Recent versions of wine do not refer to those files for
configuration settings.
Contributing factors for removal include:
* #460783 xwine: your package depends from gnome-libs that is scheduled for
removal
* #468050: Security problems present in xwine
* Non-responsive maintainer.
I've CC'd the maintainer, who I've not asked about this, and also
the release team to handle the removal from Lenny.
