Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Amara is very heavy and it has very few users. There are more suitable
alternatives for XML parsing already in Debian (like python-lxml).
I request an adopter for the amara package, or removing as well.
The package description is:
Amara XML toolkit is an open-source collection of Python tools for
XML processing, not just tools that happen to be written in Python,
but tools built from the ground up to use Python idioms and take
advantage of the many advantages of Python over other programming
languages.
.
Amara builds on 4Suite, but whereas 4Suite focuses more on literal
implementation of XML standards in Python, Amara adds a much more
Pythonic face to these capabilities.
.
Amara provides tools you can trust to conform with XML standards
without losing the familiar Python feel.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
amara | 1.2a2-1.1 | source
python-amara | 1.2a2-1.1 | all
------------------- Reason -------------------
RoQA; dead upstream
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive (ftp-master.debian.org) and will not propagate to any
mirrors (ftp.debian.org included) until the next cron.daily run at the
earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close Bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they where closed
correctly or should have been re-assign to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].
The full log for this bug can be viewed at http://bugs.debian.org/612988
This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
