Removal of hawknl



Hello,

Reiner Herrmann has been working on several RC bugs recently and he also
started to work on hawknl. [1] He came to the conclusion that keeping this
package in Debian is probably not a good idea because a) it was uploaded to
Debian 13 years ago and then it never saw an update, b) it is only a library
without reverse-dependencies that nobody seems to use. I agree with him that it
makes more sense to remove hawknl from Debian due to the lack of proper
maintenance and demand.

If you agree with this analysis then I intend to file a removal request for
hawknl soon. If not, please shout.

Regards,

Markus
