Hi,

I'd like to remove SikuliX from the archive. This package is broken and I'm
not optimistic at all about its future. Upstream has a weird way of dealing
with new releases:
* the source tree is subject to tremendous changes between minor releases
* whole parts of the 1.1.2 source tree are missing because upstream
  considers them frozen; it is to the maintainer to reintegrate them from
  release 1.1.1
Upstream sees Linux distros as an annoying exception wrt installation from
Maven repositories for Windows and Mac OSs.

Because of these upstream choices the Debian patch set keeps growing for
each release.

I've just given a try at packaging release 1.1.2 and, after adding yet
another couple of patches, it builds fine but is completely broken at
runtime.  I've tested version 1.1.1 currently in unstable and testing and
it is broken as well, probably because of the migration to Wayland.

Then I give up :/ Considering the very low popcon I think I'd rather ask for
a removal.

Tanks,

_g.
