Looking at the packages in the BUILDINFO rebuild list, I've found some packages which are so old that they might not longer suit [core] or our repos in general. So I'd like to propose that we either move or remove the following packages:
*Remove* - pcmciautils - Ancient technology - speedtouch - If you are using a linux kernel >= 2.6.10 , you should use the kernel module instead. - bootchart - Replaced by systemd-bootchart - zd1211-firmware - really really old WiFi chip. Move to [extra] or remove - linux-atm - Not sure what this is, but looks old. *Move to [extra]* - ifenslave - Don't see why it is required in core, also orphan - libgssglue/librpcsecgss - move to extra, nothing in [core] deps on it. (archboot and nfs-utils used to dep on it) - b43-fwcutter - Is this still required for more recent broadcom cards? -- Jelle van der Waa
