ppracer is upstream dead.  Extreme Tuxracer is a fork from a
beta-version of ppracer, which never made it stable.  So it is a
replacement, but since it seems to have quite higher hardware
requirements, I consider having both in Lenny and removing ppracer after
the Lenny release; (ppracer is in good shape and allthough unmaintained
upstream no security risc).

Positive aspect:  This branch of extreme tuxracer seems to use the same
format for courses as ppracer does, so planetpenguin-racer-extras might
be usable for extreme tuxracer as well.


Yours sincerely,
  Alexander
