Dear fellow munin maintainers,

as of now munin seems to be the only user of libnet-irc-perl that is left:

$ apt-cache rdepends libnet-irc-perl
libnet-irc-perl
Reverse Depends:
  munin-plugins-core
  munin-plugins-core

I am tempted to remove the "ircu" plugin from the munin-plugins-core package
and thus remove this "Suggests" relationship. This would allow the
libnet-irc-perl package to be removed.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Lars

PS: Of course, anyone willing to migrate the plugin to a different IRC module is
kindly invited to propose such a patch upstream.
