Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal

http://www.debian.org/support#irc contains:

To connect, you need an IRC client. Some of the most popular clients are XChat, ircII, irssi, epic4 and KSirc, all of which have been packaged for Debian.


This is a little outdated.

KSirc was removed with KDE 4 and is no longer supported. For KDE, I useKonversation:http://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=konversation (about 200popcon votes)There is also kvirc, which apparently has more votes:http://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=kvirc


Both of these have more votes than ircII (~100) and epic4 (~15).

So please replace KSirc by at least Konversation.
