Bug#305604: ftp.debian.org: Please remove source package libdbd-sqlite-perl
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: serious
With libdbd-sqlite2-perl and libdbd-sqlite3-perl now in testing we can
now drop libdbd-sqlite-perl. Please note that:
* The lire package still depends on libdbd-sqlite-perl; I can
prepare an NMU if required, the maintainer hasn't responded to
several emails sent to his d.o address and Cc'ed to debian-perl.
* We can't ship libdbd-sqlite-perl with sarge since it's not
compatible with upstream. Getting stuck a couple of years with
that problem is something I'd rather not handle. The sooner the
package is removed from testing the better, since this would give
me more time to react to bug reports and feedback from users.
Thanks!
Marcelo
