severity #771503 serious thanks Hi,
it would have been nice to get in touch with the Debian maintainer of the package first, but if you don't want your package in Debian, that's fine with me. Web2ldap is developed at a fast pace, with new releases every few weeks. In those process, "old" (read: not the latest) releases get marked "historic" and upstream is likely to react to bug reports for "historic" versions of web2ldap with a "please upgrade", which is not possible in Debian stable. This release and support strategy does not fit Debian's release and support schedule at all. It is unlikely that there would ever be a version with upstream support in Debian stable, which is the version of Debian that is likely to be used in production LDAP environments, if at all. I therefore agree that it is not a good idea to not have web2ldap in Debian. It is a pity that I didn't acknowledge this fact before spending time to package web2ldap. I apologize fro this shortcoming. I have raised the severity of this bug to serious so that web2ldap gets removed from Debian testing. The proper procedure to get a package completely removed from Debian is laid out in chapter 5.9.2 of the Debian Developers' Reference.
