Remove c2man from testing
Package: c2man
Testing: 2.41-16
Unstable: 2.41-16
Suggestion: remove-from-testing remove-from-unstable
Analysis:
c2man has been dead upstream for years (which was, so far, not a
problem), and does not work with modern C/C++ programs -- which _is_
a problem. The functionality has been superseded with packages like
doxygen; it has been requested that c2man be removed from Sid.

Do not allow this language (Ada) in its present state to be used in
applications where reliability is critical, i.e., nuclear power
stations, cruise missiles, early warning systems, anti-ballistic
missile defense systems. The next rocket to go astray as a result of
a programming language error may not be an exploratory space rocket on
a harmless trip to Venus: It may be a nuclear warhead exploding over
one of our cities. An unreliable programming language generating
unreliable programs constitutes a far greater risk to our environment
and to our society than unsafe cars, toxic pesticides, or accidents at
nuclear power stations. Hoare
