Given that blacs-test-common was removed and honestly PVM does not seem to be used for parallel computing, it makes lots of sense to me that blacs-pvm should be removed, too. By the way, I have just seen it's been marked as AUTORM and will be removed anyway. Then, no actions to take it back into Debian archive might be the right thing to do. Best, -- Muammar El Khatib.
