Why this academic exercise? There aren't any binaries built from that, so Debian packages couldn't use it. The empty transition packages probably only still use that upstream source because of technical reasons (due to the way the archive management and dependency system works). Without any binaries, then for all practical purposes, it's gone. I'd think that's good enough (and probably so did the Debian glut maintainer, who now maintains freeglut). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you an open source citizen?
