Bug#559110: nws: should this package be removed?
Hello, I just contacted upstream to check what their plan about this are. My opinion is that if they do not update it upstream, it should be removed. That would be a pity because there is no direct replacement, but anyway. Bye, Mt.

Bug#559110: nws: should this package be removed?
Package: nws Version: 2.13-6.1 Severity: serious Justification: RC-buggy, extremely low popcon, no releases since 2005 User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: proposed-removal nws seems like a possible candidate for removal from Debian: * RC-buggy (runs init script without going via invoke-rc.d) * extremely low popcon (3) * no upstream release since 2005 * contains a mis-packaged static library which should be in the -dev package (I won't bother filing a separate bug for this) If you want to keep this package around in Debian, please just close this bug, and do an upload to fix the issues in it. If you don't think it's worth keeping, please send the following commands to cont...@bugs.debian.org, replacing nn with this bug's number: severity nn normal reassign nn ftp.debian.org retitle nn RM: -- RoM; thanks For more information, see http://wiki.debian.org/ftpmaster_Removals http://ftp-master.debian.org/removals.txt Regards, smcv signature.asc Description: Digital signature
