For your information, here is how I use dak for QA. * ssh to mirror.ftp-master.debian.org, aka coccia.debian.org * If I think source packages foo and bar should be removed from unstable, ask dak whether that would break any (build-)dependencies: dak rm -R -n foo bar (if it would break other packages but I think those packages should be removed too, then I add them to the end of the command-line and iterate) * If I think source packages foo and bar should be removed from testing, that's similar: dak rm -R -n -s testing foo bar * You can also investigate what would happen if a maintainer dropped individual binary packages, which is good if you are that maintainer and you plan to drop that package in a future upload, similar to the recent migration from libgpgme11-dev to libgpgme-dev: dak rm -R -n -b libgpgme11-dev Regards, S
