Hi, I just noticed that yaclc was removed, under the premise of being orphaned and having a low popcon score. This broke my workflow (I had a pbuilder hook that installed lintian and yaclc together, and that started failing, so I noticed the absence of the lintian run). My particular use case hides the popularity of yaclc, because it's only ever installed in the pbuilder chroot at the end of a package build. I just wonder how many other people were doing that too? I must have got the idea from somewhere... Also, was the package actually buggy? I'd been using it for years, and it's not like the BTS or the changelog format have fundamentally changed, so if it wasn't totally busted, so what if it's orphaned? Couldn't the QA team have adopted it instead? It seems like a useful tool to me (yes I've seen the discussion on the removal bug, but I don't see how removing it before a replacement exists helps anybody). regards Andrew
