It's not so simple. There's a procedure for removing packages. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ch-pkgs.en.html#s-removing-pkgs The popcon stats are not zero. http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?popcon=libgtk-perl Nathanael, are there worthy replacements for these packages using the new gnome libraries? If not yet, then I would like to keep these packages generated for now. But, Nathanael, I appreciate that you care about cleaning up. Good work, including making that list of "orphaned packages with low popcon". Regards, Bart Martens
