Subject: O: linleech -- A program to selectively download usenet articles

Date: Sun, 12 Jan 2003 02:16:25 +0100

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

The current maintainer of linleech, Mitch Blevins <mblevin@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore.  Therefore, I orphan this package now.
If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: A program to selectively download usenet articles
 linleech is a small, script-driven *NIX program that automates
 the process of downloading USENET articles. Using a small command
 set, linleech will search groups for articles that match given
 criteria and automatically download them for you. This is useful
 for retrieving anything from binary posts to something as specific
 as searching for the latest HOWTO in a Linux group.

Justification: Inactive, hasn't been seen since Feb 2002, email bounces

Please remove linleech. It has been orphaned, there are better
alternatives, it is outdated, and upstream seems to have disappeared.

Subject: Bug#176327: fixed

Date: Tue, 05 Aug 2003 12:24:47 -0400

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

  linleech |    2.2.1-2 | source, alpha, arm, hppa, hurd-i386, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, s390, sparc
  linleech | 2.2.1-2.0.1 | powerpc

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive (ftp-master.debian.org) and will not propagate to any
mirrors (ftp.debian.org included) until the next cron.daily run at the
earliest.

Packages are never removed from testing by hand.  Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 176327@bugs.debian.org.

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
ftpmaster@debian.org.
