Subject: O: gnome-think -- Hierarchical organizer and outliner

Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2005 00:20:56 +0200

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

The current maintainer of gnome-think, Peter Teichman <pat@debian.org>,
has orphaned this package.  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.

Note that the Debia maintainer is also upstream, and has no time for upstream
maintainance either. If nobody wants to take over also upstream, it can
probably better just be removed from the archive.

Subject: Removal of gnome-think

Date: Sun, 9 Apr 2006 18:30:26 +0100

This WNPP bug about gnome-think has been open for over a year with no
indications of interest. I propose we file for the removal of this package.

Cheers,

Rob

Subject: Remove gnome-think

reassign 302261 ftp.debian.org
retitle 302261 RM: gnome-think -- RoQA; orphaned long time, dead upstream, GNOME 1
thanks

Orphaned over a year with no nibbles, dead upstream.
As suggested, this package should be removed.

It is surprsingly popular; 407 installs.  But only 70 of those are
votes; the rest are not actually using it.

This is also one of those irritating GNOME 1 packages which forces
a large collection of orphaned GNOME 1 libraries to be kept in Debian.

Subject: Bug#302261: fixed

Date: Sun, 24 Dec 2006 23:52:57 +0000

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

gnome-think |    0.2.1-1 | source, alpha, amd64, arm, hppa, hurd-i386, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc

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 302261@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.
