Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I intent to orphan the snownews package.
The package description is:
Snownews is a text mode RSS/RDF newsreader (similar to what lynx is for
web-browsing). It supports RSS 1.0 feeds that comply with the W3C RDF
specification and also supports Radio Userland's RSS 0.91 and 2.0 versions.
It also includes the following additional features:
.
HTTP proxy support
Correctly handles HTTP 301, 304, and gzip/deflate Content-Encodings.
Imports OPML (Outline Processor Markup Language) subscription lists
Fully customizable key bindings
Customizable color support
.
Homepage: http://snownews.kcore.de
I am no longer interested in this package, a new upstream version is
available (no real changes) and I think newsbeuter is far better than
snownews providing all the features people ever wanted to get
implemented in snownews. I maintain this package together with Joe
Nahmias and I poked him 3 weeks ago about the fact that I am no longer
interested in this package and poked him again one week ago. No answer.
So I am orphaning this package now.
Cheers
Nico

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
snownews | 1.5.7-8 | hurd-i386
snownews | 1.5.10-1 | source, alpha, amd64, 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was superseded by another one.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].

This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
