the package

a) was blocking the whole chef stack from migrating to testing for
almost a month

b) was already uninstallable in unstable since then

c) had a corresponding RC bug report for 20 days without any sign of a
reaction

I could test (i.e. what my system actually provided) is still there.

I didn't mean to cause any problems. If you think I should, I can do a
