Subject: supercollider: should this package be removed?

Date: Sun, 14 Oct 2007 20:46:12 +0200

Package: supercollider
Version: 20060416-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: proposed-removal

Hi,

While reviewing some packages, your package came up as a possible
candidate for removal from Debian, because:

 * RC bugs, including one open for a very long time without any comment
   from the maintainers
 * low popcon
 * hasn't migrated to testing for a very long time

If you think that it should be orphaned instead of being removed from
Debian, please reply to this bug and tell so.

If you agree, sending the following commands to control@bugs.debian.org
should do it (after replacing nnnnnn with this bug's number):
severity nnnnnn normal
reassign nnnnnn ftp.debian.org
retitle nnnnnn RM: <packagename> -- RoM; <reasons> 
thanks

For more information, see
http://wiki.debian.org/ftpmaster_Removals
http://ftp-master.debian.org/removals.txt

If you disagree and want to continue to maintain this package, please
just close this bug, preferably in an upload also fixing the other
issues.

Thank you,

Hi,

Since the situation hasn't evolved, I am now orphaning this package.
I still plan to request its removal in the near future, but this
orphaning could allow someone to adopt the package if appropriate.

Please reply to this bug report if you feel that this package shouldn't
be removed.

Please also reply if you think that this package _should_ be removed, as
this will allow to make the process quicker.

Thank you,

Subject: Bug#454257: fixed

Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2008 00:12:55 +0000

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

libsclang1 | 20060416-1 | i386, powerpc
libscsynth1 | 20060416-1 | arm, i386, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc
libscsynth1 | 20060416-1+b1 | hppa
supercollider | 20060416-1 | source, i386, powerpc
supercollider-dev |   040926-2 | alpha, ia64
supercollider-dev | 20060416-1 | arm, i386, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc
supercollider-dev | 20060416-1+b1 | hppa
supercollider-doc | 20060416-1 | all
supercollider-server | 20060416-1 | arm, i386, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc
supercollider-server | 20060416-1+b1 | hppa

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 454257@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.
