Dear Paul, dear ftpmasters, @Paul: thank you for controlling this bug: reassigning it, adding moreinfo tag, retitling it.
You are writing below that I should update the bug, "until then the bug can be tagged as moreinfo". But I fear that this bug is already tagged moreinfo. @all: I probably misunderstood something, so I beg your pardon if the next lines are not appropriate. To sum it up, my request was to remove the package algotutor from unstable and testing, because during a recent check, I could not run algotutor right like explained in the packaged documentation. Now it has been removed from testing, and I am discovering that it can remain in unstable: I am checking it again; I discover that algotutor is working as announced when the working directory is /usr/share/algotutor (which was not clearly documented). So, the removal of algotutor from testing is correct, since it cannot be used by a random user who reads the manual page right now. However, the removal from unstable is not necessary: I will fix the documentation to make it clear how to run examples, and push a new version when Buster will become the new stable release. Best regards, Georges.
