Bug#907199: weboob, Gratuitous sexual references
Quack,
Just to clarify things on my side.
I made my opinion clear as to the needless boobs reference I believe
harmless. So far I heard no wish to rename from upstream, which would be
the simplest solution.
As for insults, they were removed upstream, unstable was patched (not
all fixes were released yet), and we're waiting for the release team to
allow fixes of older versions.
As for renaming, in general I believe this is a total loss of time and
energy: either a package is fit to be in Debian or it is not (and in
this case rejected from NEW or later RM-ed). I do not believe hiding
things are making the world better, it is still the same upstream and in
other distributions. If we do that upstream has no incentive to change.
My opinion on the real harm of this specific package being as it is, I
do not intend to ask for RM myself.
I value the opinion of the anti-harassment team but I believe this is
outside their mission. At the moment we do not have any team in charge
of validating the non-technical aspects of the packages, and ftpmasters
do not seem eager to play this role, so the anti-harassment team is
probably the best suited for the job. Maybe this could be a topic for
our DPL to setup/extend a formal delegation.
