I recently received the mail below from etoken's upstream maintainer. I'm
asking for its removal since the it has been superceded by OpenCT.

Hi guys,

debian still includes a software called "etoken".
that software is buggy, does not work properly (or at all?) and
trying to use it can damage your hardware.

so please be so kind and remove it?

I'm the author of it, and I replaced it with some new open source project
about 7 years ago, and even that one got replaced many years ago
with another open source project: openct. part of debian for ages and
working well.

For reference: in debian the source is called "etoken", the binary
is called "libetoken", and the upstream web page is
        http://etoken.sourceforge.net/

Thanks, Andreas
