Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
Hi,
Please could you remove autofs. In addition to already containing
RC bugs (deletion of top-level directories), it will not work with
/etc/mtab being symlinked to /proc/mounts. The next sysvinit
upload will Break all versions less than 5. This will make it
uninstallable to prevent breakage.
This package has been superseded by autofs5, and autofs has been
Provided by autofs5 for the past two stable releases. Users
wishing to continue to use autofs can just upgrade to autofs5.
Regards,
Roger

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
autofs | 4.1.4+debian-3 | source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, mips,
mipsel, powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
autofs-hesiod | 4.1.4+debian-3 | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel,
powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
autofs-ldap | 4.1.4+debian-3 | amd64, armel, armhf, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel,
powerpc, s390, s390x, sparc
------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; Contains RC bugs, unmaintained, superseded by autofs5 several releases ago
----------------------------------------------
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.
We try to close Bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they where closed
correctly or should have been re-assign to another package.
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
