--- Begin Message ---Package: rcalc Version: 0.5.0-1.3 Severity: serious Justification: FTBFS, no upstream release since 2005, many alternatives I observe that rcalc seems to have some problems: * last 3 uploads were NMUs * fails to build from source (missing dependency on libglade2, but when that's fixed, the GNOME applet seems to be missing the CFLAGS for libgnomeui) * last upstream release was in 2005 * uses some deprecated GNOME libraries (e.g. libgnomeui) * alternatives include genius, qalulate, extcalc, galculator, Python, ... Is it still useful to have in Debian?

--- Begin Message ---We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following package(s) have been removed from unstable: rcalc | 0.5.0-1.3 | source, amd64, armel, hurd-i386, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc ------------------- Reason ------------------- RoQA; unmaintained, RC-buggy, dead upstream, alternatives exist ---------------------------------------------- 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/552183 This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing [email protected].
