Well, as you noticed: The package has already been removed (about a month ago, after it has been removed from testing nearly a year ago), so there's not much we (as the ftp-team) can do now. Please also note, that even if there are no alternatives to the package the original bug report also stated: "It has unresolved license problems, is not part of stable and genereally unmaintained." If you care about aircrack-ng feel free to take over maintenance of the package and solve the issues the package had, and it can be added to Debian again.
