Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
Hi,
The IETF codec working group has now completed its Last Call on Opus,
which means that celt is a completed experiment and upstream will no
longer be maintaining it at all outside of Opus.
All the things previously depending on celt have either been updated or
have dropped their dependency on the library package now.
The only thing remaining that dak rm reports is:
# Broken Depends:
gst-plugins-bad0.10: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad [hurd-i386]
Which is blocked by failing to build on hurd due to #676130, which has
a patch in the BTS. If needed I can NMU zvbi to clear that up as well.
Since the 0.7.1 release of celt that we have been carrying is not
interoperable with any other version of it, and since other distros
are all carrying other versions of it, upstream would very much like
us to stop distributing this as a system lib for the Wheezy release.
A few things still need to make it to testing before we can remove
it there also, but modulo hurd, we should be clear to remove it from
unstable now.
The only thing which has any excuse at all to still be using celt 0.7.1
is mumble, which declared it as the baseline interop codec for its
private protocol prior to the release of squeeze. The original intent
was to move this to a private library of mumble when the time came to
remove it from experimental use in other software, but since there is
currently some concern that there may be remotely triggerable bugs in
the 0.7.1 release, this has become an open question all of its own ...
The resolution to that is independent of this removal request, I'll
keep people who need to know in the loop as we learn more - but I
mention it here because there are rumours that roaraudio (those nice
folk who brought you a DECnet dependency to d-i) may try to resurrect
this package, or embed it themselves, so just in case that is actually
true, I'm red-flagging it here as an Unwise Move to make.
If you need me to push zvbi before we can move on this, just let me know.
Thanks!
Ron

package(s) have been removed from unstable:
celt | 0.7.1-1 | source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64,
kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
celt | 0.7.1-1+b1 | hurd-i386
celt-doc | 0.7.1-1 | all

libcelt0-0 | 0.7.1-1+b1 | hurd-i386
------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; abandoned upstream, replaced by opus
----------------------------------------------
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].
