predict package in Debian

[Hamish Moffatt <hamish@debian.org>]

Hi Maitland,

Your package 'predict' is going to be removed from Debian testing
(squeeze) because predict-gsat uses GTK 1.2. Unless it can be adopted to
GTK 2.0 it is probably best to remove the GUI frontend and just package
the text version.

Will you still maintain the 'predict' package? We have a ham radio
packaging team (debian-hams@lists.debian.org) which you could join if
you want to share maintenance, or we can look after the package.

regards
Hamish
