Not sure who the question is directed at but hopefully I can help clear
out some confusion here.

This is a ROM. Lluis is both debian (co-)maintainer as well as upstream
for all the mender related components (unlike myself who only tries to
help out on the debian side).

Lluis has been driving the work to clean out dependencies of these
deprecated components both upstream and in debian.

Would be great if we can put the final nail in the coffin and get them
removed.


Since Lluis doesn't have the access I've now tried dak rm test run
which seems to confirm there should be no blockers for the removal of
golang-github-mendersoftware-mendertesting

(Lluis: please note to give ftp-masters the name of the source-package,
not the binary package .... unless you're asking for only a specific
binary package to be removed. Normally we want source removals and
that will also get all binaries removed.)

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
