Bug#274234: Maintainer & upstream unreachable, new upstream & maintainer prerequisite for inclusion in Sarge

2004-09-30 Thread Jeroen van Wolffelaar
Package: statslog Severity: serious The domain of the maintainer and upstream website (the same person) doesn't exist anymore. Since this package was never part of any stable release, and it'd be unwise to introduce a package that doesn't have anyone caring about it for over two years, the package

Please remove gutenbook/0.1.10-6

2004-09-30 Thread Martin Michlmayr
