Possible removal of ruby-actionpack-action-caching



The purpose of this email is to see if removing ruby-actionpack-action-caching 
would cause any problems for anyone.

ruby-actionpack-action-caching used to be part of ruby-actionpack, but was 
removed from core in Rails 4.0.

https://github.com/rails/actionpack-action_caching

Th upstream repository hasn’t been updated since 2021.

It used to be a dependency of redmine.  That dependency was removed by 
upstream at some point in the past, but the package dependency in debian/
control accidentally remained.  I have just tested building the package 
without this dependency and it appears to build and run without issue.

https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/redmine/-/pipelines/910913

Only two reverse dependencies are shown:  redmine and ruby-actionpack.  My 
assumption is that ruby-actionpack isn’t actually using it anymore.  If 
something that depends on ruby-actionpack does actually use this code then we 
should keep it, but if nothing uses it then I would be in favor of removing 
the package from Debian.
