Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the posixtestsuite package.

The package description is:
 The POSIX Test Suite is a free (as in speech) test suite with the goal
 of  performing conformance, functional, and stress testing of the IEEE
 1003.1-2001 System Interfaces specification in a manner that is agnostic
 to any given implementation.
 .
 This package only provides the test suite results in a log file. If you
 want to run the testsuite, use the source package of the same name (e.g.
 apt-get source posixtestsuite).


Upstream is dead, as it was merged into the Linux Test Project some
time ago:

  
<https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/tree/master/testcases/open_posix_testsuite>

anyone wanting to take over, might prefer to spend the effort instead
ressurrecting the ltp package. See #672776.

Thanks,
Guillem
