Bug#633785: Remaining wnpp-* scripts won't work anymore (dak and bts2ldap is missing)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: normal
Similar to the problem reported in #632092, the remaining wnpp scripts
won't work anymore because of the dead bts2ldap interface.
Affected scripts are:
* maintainers-needed.pl [1] (indirect)
* wnpp-disposable [2]
* wnpp-lint [3]
* wnpp-publicize [4]
gen-orphaned was fixed by me in #632092. What to do with the remaining
wnpp scripts? The scripts itself are perhaps still useful (although
apparently nobody noticed they're dead since a while), but even if they
were ported to the SOAP interface, some still require access to dak,
which is not accessible from the QA host.
So basically, one would have to get rid of dak and bts2ldap dependencies
(perhaps using UDD instead), but I'm not able to fix those scripts, as I
(afaict) can't access the input files, and purpose of some of those
scripts is not exactly obvious to me (as I'm not able to run it).
Alternatives include, but are not limited to archive the scripts and get
rid of them.
