Subject: 3.0: End of life

Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2016 14:16:23 -0400

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: phpbb3
Version: 3.0.14-1
Severity: serious

[ Filled as an RC-bug by the maintainer to see the package auto-removed
  from testing, and not let it block the PHP 7.0 transition. ]

Upstream announced that the end of life of the 3.0 branch happened a few
months ago [EOL]. Unless someones steps up to maintain it [#767667],
this package shouldn’t be shipped with the next Debian stable release.

	EOL: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2302466
	#767667: https://bugs.debian.org/767667

I intend to follow up with an RM request in a few months if nobody
objects (but feel free to beat me to it).

Regards

David

Subject: Bug#816655: Removed package(s) from unstable

Date: Mon, 02 May 2016 01:31:53 +0000

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

    phpbb3 |   3.0.14-1 | source, all
phpbb3-l10n |   3.0.14-1 | all

------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; PHP 7.0 transition
----------------------------------------------

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 and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.

Packages are usually not 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. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.

We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 816655@bugs.debian.org.

a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
