+# The upstream developer and former maintainer asked to treeclean these 
+# packages, because they can be used only with the Siemens Mediacenter 
+# Activy 3xx which was produced till 2005. He confirmed, that no user
+# is left who needs the package from our tree for this special hardware.
+# See also bug #633098. Masked for removal on 2018-01-31
