I would agree (specialy, since I asked -release for it [1] and fucked up
the transition when getting sick and missing freeze), but:  One day
the transition package, tuxracer 0.61-7, hit sid, I got several mails
(Uh... four I think), asking, why they can't stay with tuxracer.

Three of them pointed out, that ppracer, the inofficial successor of
tuxracer, runs quite slow on their hardware, while tuxracer still runs
fine.

And since tuxracer still compiles and runs, I tend to close this
bugreport, but it would be okay for me, to move tuxracer 0.61-7 to
sarge, if a release manger agrees to remove old software with dead
upstream.

But please note, that you then should push tuxracer-extras 0.5-2 into sarge,
too.


Yours sincerely,
  Alexander
