That was shipped in bullseye and buster. So let's postpone the removal to bookworm. We can do this now. Andreas

As pointed out in #978954, its better to replace it by a dummy with the broken download/install functionality removed to ensure clean upgrades. I just uploaded 1.8.8 doing this. So let's postpone the removal to bookworm. Andreas

The FTP Team don't handle stable or oldstable removals. However: - removals from oldstable aren't possible once it moves to LTS; however, the package isn't in stretch anyway - for removal from stable, please "reportbug release.debian.org" and follow the prompts.
