I had a look at #22626, where some comments indicate that database_gap
is becoming fully *standard*. On the other hand, comments in #26856
indicate that database_gap is merged into gap_packages, thus *not*
standard. On yet another hand, #26856 removes database_gap from the
dependencies list of p_group_cohomology and also edits SPKG.txt in a
way that indicates that at least SmallGroups *is* standard.

So, the pieces of information I got form the following picture:
"database_gap was fully merged into *two* other packages. Rumour has it
that SmallGroups is now in gap, perhaps some other parts as well (but
that's a secret), and a non-empty subset of database_gap now is in
gap_packages." That's not nice.

If it is really the case that database_gap was split, some parts merged
into a standard package, other parts merged into an optional package,
then it would be good to have a list somewhere.

Simon
