Bug#844332: RM: live-build -- RoQA; no upstream; name changed in archive

["Iain R. Learmonth" <irl@debian.org>]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hi,

This is orphaned and while maintained upstream does appear to have had a name
change and is now packaged as open-infrastructure-system-build (which is nice
and easy to type).

The open-infrastructure-system-build is maintained by the former maintainer of
live-build, and now instead of using live-boot, live-config seems to use
open-infrastructure-system-boot and open-infrastructure-system-config (again
really easy to type).

It was my intention to work with Daniel on maintaining the live-boot and
live-config packages as cross-compatible but it seems that Daniel would like to
have sole control over those packages and is not open to collaboration. I
mention this as I had only today noticed that these packages were in the
archive. If you depended previously on live-build, you should now depend on
open-infrastructure-system-build.

Thanks,
Iain.
