Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
In November I requested that the monotone binary package be removed from
unstable on alpha due to failure to build from source (bug #451171).
It subsequently built successfully on alpha, so I closed that bug as moot.
It has now become evident that the success was spurious -- there really
are architecture-specific bugs (probably in gcc, not in monotone itself,
but that's beside the point here) that prevent monotone from being useful
on alpha for the foreseeable future.
Thus I request, again, that the monotone binary package for alpha,
version 0.37-4, be removed from unstable. (I am filing a new bug rather
than reopen #451171 because that bug has been archived.)
To reiterate the reverse dependency analysis:
- monotone-server is useless (and uninstallable) without monotone,
but it is an arch:all package and will continue to be useful on other
architectures.
- monotone-viz has reduced functionality without monotone, but can be
installed and used without it.
- tailor and qct are high-level tools for working with any number of
different VCSs. The non-presence of monotone on alpha will not render
them uninstallable or unusable.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
monotone | 0.37-4 | alpha
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was superseded by another one.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 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
