Hi, I propose that we remove the flightgear, simgear and probably associated packages fgfs-base and fgrun from wheezy, because they have RC bugs and there seems to be no concrete indication that this will be resolved anytime soon. This is based on the following observations. Security issues have been reported against the packages (#669024, #669025) on 16 April which have not seen any maintainer reponse since. The adding patches over three weeks ago to the bugs hasn't changed that either. The current package versions in unstable are of a different branch than those in testing, and fail to build for months, whithout observable maintainer reaction (#690005). Add to that that the packages currenly in wheezy are NMU's of up to three iterations, and I conclude that it may be better to not release them with wheezy. Cheers, Thijs
