Subject: O: regexplorer -- A visual regular expression explorer

Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2004 23:40:53 +0200

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the regexplorer package.

The package description is:
 RegExplorer is a visual regular expression explorer, it allows
 for writing regular expressions and visually see the matches,
 thus making regular expression much easier to write and maintain.
 .
 More information can be found at the RegExplorer web site
 http://regexplorer.sourceforge.net/

I'm lacking the time, skill, and courage to properly maintain this
package. At first I intended to learn Qt by reading the source and
going through how things work (I have learned C++ at school), but that
never happened; right now, I have more important things to do.

There are two (severity normal) bugs on regexplorer, that I don't
think would be hard to fix for anyone familiar with Qt; however, I
don't know where to begin.

Subject: Removed regexplorer from unstable

Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2005 18:07:44 -0400

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

regexplorer |   0.1.6-12 | source, alpha, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc

Reason: RoQA; Dead upstream

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was superseded by another one.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 the just-closed bug (or by
replying to this mail if there is no bug closed).

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.
