Bug#1079021: RM: dnprogs/2.65



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: rm
X-Debbugs-Cc: sanvila@debian.org

Dear Release Managers:

I believe this package (dnprogs) should be removed from bullseye
in the next (and last) upcoming point release.

- Main reason: Packages in bullseye must build in bullseye.

This package does not build from source, and there is
no workaround (the error is a compiler error, not a test
failure).

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1070960

- When it was removed from unstable, it was already considered obsolete:

https://tracker.debian.org/news/1391977/removed-265-from-unstable/

- The exact same version (2.65) exists in oldoldstable, so anybody
who really needs the package (most probably using a non-standard kernel)
can take it from there.

Thanks.
