According the the documentation http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#removing-pkgs such packages are supposed to be removed automatically, and filing a removal request should not be necessary. I don't really understand why it is still there in testing, I expected it to have been removed when the new voms package migrated to testing. On the other hand, I didn't expect that the voms package would migrate before all packages that depended on libvomsapi0 had been rebuilt and no longer had this dependency, and that then all these packages would then migrate together. It seems there are details in how migration works that I don't fully understand. Mattias
