xconq seems dead upstream, and requires an obsolete Tcl/Tk version, so it seems
a good candidate for removal.

If you don't think so, please close this bug report, otherwise I'll convert it
into a
removal request in a couple of weeks.
   


Yes, please do convert it into a removal. I'd been hoping to package a 
gtk version that was started, but that's long dead upstream as well. 
It's sad to see such a great old piece of software get removed, but it's 
no longer a fit program for distribution in Debian. Thanks for your work!
