Bug#1028324: RM: cduce -- RoQA, unmaintained, FTBFS, zero popcon

[Tobias Frost <tobi@debian.org>]

Source: cduce
Severity: normal
User: tobi-rm-proposals@d.o
Usertags: rm-proposal

Dear Maintainer,

- the package has currently 1 RC (FTBFS) bug on all architectures:

#878983 [S|⛺|  ] [src:cduce] cduce FTBFS with OCaml 4.05.0

- It is even not installable in sid:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 cduce : Depends: libcamlp4-ocaml-dev-p9wj7
         Depends: libcurl-ocaml-dev-34fm5
         Depends: libexpat-ocaml-dev-18y95
         Depends: libocamlnet-ocaml-dev-zpic0 but it is not installable
         Depends: libpcre-ocaml-dev-54x46
         Depends: ocaml-nox-4.02.3
         Depends: ocaml-ulex-68rw6
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


- The last upload was 2015.

- popcon is "0".

- There are no r-depends on the package.


This makes me wonder if we should retire this package.

If you don't think so, please fix your package.

If you also think that it shoulw be removed, just reassign it to the
ftp.debian.org pseudo package.

If there is no answer, I will reassing the bug for removal in exactly 3 months.

Thanks!
