Hi DEVs/TUs,
I'm again on the cleanup of orphans packages in the [extra] repository; this
time with a small list[1].
The list is based on orphans packages needed by none.
I don't see very important packages there, but chromium, krusader, mc and
proftpd which maybe should be kept in [extra]; though they will probably find
their maintainers in [community].
As the last time (more than 7 months ago), please cross out the packages you
want to keep in [extra]. Adoption is not required, but it would be nice.
If you are a TU you can ask to maintain a package writing its name to the
"Candidate to [community]" list[2].
I invite all you maintainers to check the orphans packages on the Arch
website, many are maintained packages where the maintainer simply forgot to
adopt it.
Thanks

Added myself as a candidate to maintain chromium, so far, I'm loving it! (tm)
I added myself for all the vim stuff and dosbox. I also recommend
numlockx, vbetool and ltrace be kept in [extra]
