Shall we consider removing 'deliver'?



Orphaned March 2006, no nibbles.

62 popcon installs, 19 votes.

But the reason for removal is that there is a very old bug which nobody has 
managed to do anything with: specifically 3319 (second oldest open bug in 
Debian) and 31501 (merged with it).  The suggested workaround is 
essentially "don't use deliver, use procmail".

This really isn't the quality of maintenance I want in Debian.  :-(

I'd suggest fixing the bug, but I don't see any value in the program (given the 
numerous alternatives).  So I suggest removing it from Debian instead.  (Of 
course, feel free to fix it.)

Oh, and there hasn't been an upstream release since 1999.
