Package: plowshare-modules
Severity: serious
Justification: none
The plowshare-modules package contains scripts that need frequent replacing to
keep pace with changes to the websites supported by the scripts since those
sites make frequent changes.
The main package plowshare contains a script (plowmod) to maintain a user-local
copy of the modules, and tools to write your own modules. Upstream treated this
as the preferred way to install and discouraged package maintainers from
packaging the modules at all after they were split into a different upstream
repository and designated as "unofficial".
Given this I don't think it makes sense to keep plowshare-modules in Debian
releases. Plowshare itself can stay (and changes only infrequently upstream),
but the user should install the modules with the plowmod script.
I will still try to update the modules package for unstable periodically, but
this RC bug is to stop that effort from migrating to testing.
