Re: Removing Packages in Slink for Debian 2.1
Hi!

This doesn't affect the current perl version but the version to be
used in 2.2. However you're right, that we cannot ship 2.1 without
perl.
The following are packages I feel we can remove:
> balsa 27726 balsa cannot be run [0] (olet@debian.org (Ole J. Tetlie))
> balsa 27894 balsa is linked against ancient version of gtk [0] (olet@debian.org (Ole J. Tetlie))
Will be fixed tonight (promised by maintainer). Also a new upstream
version is about to arrive.
gnome-gnothello 27405 gnome-gnothello doesn't run here [10] (James LewisMoss <dres@debian.org>)
Closed now.
gnus 25609 Gnus: prerm script failure make it impossible to upgrade/pruge [64] (Michael Alan Dorman <mdorman@debian.org>)
We should not ship without although it's technically not essential.
We'd better find somebody to fix this bug. MAD, what's up?
kdebase 23655 kdebase includes /etc/X11/Xsession [118] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
kdebase 25903 kdebase doesn't include rights to distribute kvt [56] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
kdebase 25974 kvt creates ~/.kde with root as owner and insane permissions [55] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
kdegraphics 25627 kdegraphics violates copyright [63] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
kdelibs0g 24643 kdebase: We have no licence to distribute KDE binaries when linked against Qt [90] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
kdemultimedia 25628 kmultimedia violates copyright law (and debian policy) [63] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
kdeutils 25630 kdeutils copyright problems [63] (Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>)
Whoops, this get's somewhat rediculous. At first we remove KDE due to
ethical / legal reasons. Now we're removing the remaining package due
to technical reasons.
yagirc 24747 yagirc: Binary and Libs for yagirc stored in /bin and /lib [87] (davidw@efn.org (David N. Welton))
Davide isn't maintaining this package anymore. Ole, are you taking
care of this one, too?
Regards,
Joey
