Weren't you going to remove them the 16th? Many of the bugs
will get fixed in a few hours.

I think quota is "too important to be removed". And its only
important bug is not so important...

`ksmbfs' doesn't have any release-critical bug (according to the
www pages).

Why is emacs "too important to be removed", but elvis isn't?

Have you also removed those packages from other architectures?
I hope not! At least, please DON'T remove anything from `sparc'.

Why is fvwm-common too important?

important?
