Package: waproamd
Version: 0.6-7.1
Severity: normal
According to http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/waproamd/ waproamd
should no longer be used.
"waproamd is obsolete, please use wpa_supplicant instead. waproamd
contains some race conditions that are impossible to fix. wpa_supplicant
supersedes waproamd in almost every way."
But the debian package does not show this warning in the package
description, man page or any other documentation I've found.

The waproamd package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/509389 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
