I spoke too soon, this removal has a reverse dependency issue:

Checking reverse dependencies...
# Broken Build-Depends:
i8c: python3-libi8x

Dependency problem found.

williamdes: can you take a look at i8c and file a RoM/RoQA for that as
well? Looks like it's not in testing or stable.

doko is not MIA. I've seen recent uploads from him. He's also on IRC.  I
asked him on IRC, he replied fairly quickly:

17:27 < doko> paultag: please remove, there's no upstream development anymore

Next time, it'd be great if you gave him a ping and found a way to get
in touch with package maintainers - RoQA'ing a package that ought to be
RoM because the maintainer is still very active in Debian is a lot of
work for us to resolve.

Hi,

I would say that at first doko was not reachable, now doko has probably a lot 
to do.

I had mailed the MIA team to see what could be done.

Now it's up to doko
