Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Hello,
I have fixed all serious or trivial bugs in debtags-edit and then
orphaned it.
The web editor is much better than debtags-edit in almost every respect,
except it cannot be used offline; however, I myself do not use
debtags-edit, and I do not enjoy maintaining it that much.
GTK-- is not that fun to use (at least, for me); compiling takes ages,
and I am not sure about a python rewrite because there are a few
performance-critical bits in the code.
Or maybe a python rewrite could be made that is based on
apt-xapian-index for speed, but then changes in the tagging are not
reflected in real time in the interface unless the index is rebuilt, or
unless debtags-edit is run as root. Both of which are not ideal.
Anyway, dealing with all of this would be so low in my TODO list that
it's not reasonably going to happen in at least a couple of years, so
it's sensible to orphan debtags-edit so that anyone interested in an GUI
offline tagging interface can pick it up if they wish.
Ciao,
Enrico

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
debtags-edit | 1.5 | source, alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, hurd-i386, i386,
ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc
------------------- Reason -------------------
RoM; orphaned; low popcon; no r-deps; FTBFS
----------------------------------------------
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 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.
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was superseded by another one.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
