Bug#900441: Misses executable, possible candidate for removal?
Package: bwbar
Version: 1.2.3-3
Severity: grave
Hi there,
the package bwbar is at least since August 2017 completely unusable:
andreas@leonard:~$ dpkg -L bwbar
/.
/etc
/etc/default
/etc/default/bwbar
/etc/init.d
/etc/init.d/bwbar
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/bwbar
/usr/share/doc/bwbar/README
/usr/share/doc/bwbar/README.Debian
/usr/share/doc/bwbar/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/bwbar/copyright
/usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/man8
/usr/share/man/man8/bwbar.8.gz
As you can see there is no binary in this package at all. While the fix would
be very trivial (adding one line to debian/install) I wonder if it wouldn't
make more sense to have this package removed.
Reasons:
- Currently unusable
- No upstream activity since 2013
- No reverse-depends
Kind regards // Viele Grüße
Andreas
