Bug#1076401: RM: cvs-buildpackage -- RoQA; Orphaned; Unmaintained; Useless



Package: ftp.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:cvs-buildpackage
X-Debbugs-Cc: cvs-buildpackage@packages.debian.org devscripts@packages.debian.org
User: ftp.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: remove
Severity: normal

Dear Debian FTP Masters,

I believe it is now the time to drop package cvs-buildpackage from Debian development
archive.

* This package was orphaned back in 2008.
* No meaningful source code changes have taken place after 2008.
* The CVS VCS packaging workflow is long gone, and no Debian packages in Sid uses it. [1]
* There are no reverse dependencies or reverse build-dependencies. Package devscript
has a suggestion on it but it is harmless (package maintainers CC-ed).

Thanks,
Boyuan Yang
