Package: xutils-dev
Version: 1:7.7+5
Severity: wishlist

The xutils-dev package ships imake and xmkmf tools, which are long
considered obsolete and not used by xorg itself for building.  They are also
not cross-build-friendly, which makes the Multi-Arch: foreign field on
xutils-dev technically a lie.

We should encourage the remaining consumers of these tools to migrate to
something that isn't 20 years obsolete, and then drop them from the package.
