Bug#443847: RM: ocamldbi -- inactive upstream, low popcon score, no reply to a user poll
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
Hi,
please remove the ocamldbi (source) package from unstable and testing.
Upstream development of ocamldbi is almost over and the package hasn't
been ported yet to ocaml-sqlite3 (it requires ocaml-sqlite which is
going to be removed soon from the archive). Besides, the popcon score is
quite low (most of the installations are probably indirect as the effect
of ocamldbi being a dependency of the old version of a meta package).
Also, a user poll on the ocaml mailing list about who is still using
ocamldbi ends up in no replies in a week.
Beides, in testing the package is blocking the transition to ocaml 3.10.
TIA,
Cheers.
