gyrus is orphaned with no maintainer, no upstream, and very low popcon. As far as I can tell, nobody cares about this package. Debian doesn't even have the last upstream release (0.3.12). As a "QA package", I think you and I have equal standing to file or oppose RoQA removal bugs. But since it looks like you are going to oppose this removal, I will have to concede that it is not worth me fighting with you about it now. I think the odds are that it will be removed, it just may end up happening in July instead of in December. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
