Hi guys,
debian still includes a software called "etoken".
that software is buggy, does not work properly (or at all?) and
trying to use it can damage your hardware.
so please be so kind and remove it?
I'm the author of it, and I replaced it with some new open source project
about 7 years ago, and even that one got replaced many years ago
with another open source project: openct. part of debian for ages and
working well.
For reference: in debian the source is called "etoken", the binary
is called "libetoken", and the upstream web page is
http://etoken.sourceforge.net/
Thanks, Andreas

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
etoken | 0.3.9-7 | source
libetoken | 0.3.9-7 | alpha, amd64, arm, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, 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was superseded by another one.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 [email protected].
